Default Car will turn over but not start please help.

Ok,So recently I was driving my daily driver that I got not to long ago which is a 1995 civic with a d16z6.So I get out of work and about 20 minutes later the car randomly shuts so I pull over pop the hood,And im leaking coolant so I left it there next day pour some coolant in still wont start.I checked see if it got spark it did,Fuel pump is also good so I take off the timing cover and the timing belt comes off cam gear.But when the car shut off I didn't hear no noises,knocks nothing.Do you guys think if I put a new timing belt on the car would be fine or the head might be garbage along with the block?Any help suggestions would be great thanks.

Was the coolant leak from a bad water pump?

Install a new timing belt, properly time it, and then compression test the cylinders.

appears your water pump seized or is toast..aand the timing belt broke or is done for. how fast were you going when this happened? i had a b16 t belt snap on startup and the motor was fine cause i was at low rpm. buut if you were doing sayyy 50 at like 4 or 5 k motor was spinning fast and things coulda been damaged. only way to tell is replace belt and water pump then comp check cylinders.

The belt is still in one piece,I was doing the speed limit at about 35 at low rpm (It's automatic)

have you checked the water pump yet? see if its spinning freely, also check out your timing belt tensioner, maybe it came loose, or broke completely, and thats why your timing belt came off so easily. could be a simple fix, was there any work doe to your car recently?
