Exclamation Need some help diagnosing a new problem!

So I have a 06' EB Expedition and on the way to go grocery shopping the truck started acting pretty weird. We were driving down the neighborhood when it seemed like the starter just started to kick on by itself while we were in drive and moving at around 30mph. It made some whicked metal on metal sound and I immediately pulled off to the side and shut her off. When I went to start it again, it immediately fired up when put on the "on" or "ACC" position without having to move it that extra 1/4" like normal. Continued to do this as we turned around, but I'm not quite sure if it is a starter/solenoid or ignition switch type problem. Anyone have any insight?

It sure sounds like an ignition switch problem.
