Sounds like a FP to me - but - if the gas level in the tank was very low that could explain it, to a point. The fuel pump couldn't suck up enough gas to run the car as the fuel sloshed to the opposite side during the turn and this killed the engine. Solution is to add gas to the tank and let the FP run until the engine is primed and able to start, then fill the tank, ASAP.

If you had plenty of gas in the tank then I would guess a failed FP or FP relay.
