The fact that it ran for 30 seconds more than once may suggest more than one problem , 1st problem sounds like fuel ,now its locked up could be a separate problem like starter bolt jammed fly wheel , have you removed the starter to see if can be turned, if not try rotating engine by screw driver on ring gear ,no luck & you can push vehicle out of gear then its a tear down , 2 minutes with out oil don,t think would seized it up ,take plugs out before trying too, good luck,
