Sounds like you shorted-out the cooling fan for your processor.
Consequently, the processor fried since it was no longer being
cooled by the fan. Find a reputable computer repair shop
nearby and take it in for repairs.

P.S. Why didn't you unplug your computer first?

That was silly. You have probably damaged the CPU and maybe
the motherboard. Take it to a store.
