Even a new battery can fail this way.

It happens more often than one would think. Same basic thing happened to me, left work car started fine. got to the gas station tried to start the car, nothing, no lights radio, nothing. Batteries can and do go bad with no warning at all. Heat in the summer is the worst time for batteries going bad.
