My phone is stuck on my lock screen and wont let me restart what do i do ?

[Android Central Question]

so my phone froze and I turned it off and opened it back up but when I I tried to unlock it the phone would not show me the keypad to put in my password. So I went to find my mobile phone to unlock it and it worked but my phone is still stuck on the lock screen . It wont let me restart it, power it down or anything

Welcome to Android Central! What screen do you see? Does it respond to touch at all?
