Sounds like your starter has a major problem. If it was turning slow and drawing excessive current it could have make the contacts in the solenoid to overheat, weld, and stick on. Remove the little wires from the solenoid and if the starter still wants to run when you connect the battery, the starter needs repair.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
