Exclamation key wont turn

I had an impact on right front suspension when I dropped off a high curb in my 2005 F-150 Super Crew. Now the key wont turn the ignition switch. Any ideas? Key is in off position but the steering wheel isn't locked. Even while turning the wheel all the way in both directions, the key still wont turn.

I appreciate the response steve(ill). Tried that first. The key is in the off position but the steering wheel is not locked. It turns in both directions. I tried turning the key as I turned the wheel but it won't turn.
