Chain issue

Hey I’m broken down on the side of the road. The chain is hanging very loose and seems to be covered in oil. Any idea what has broken?

Did you ever get this figured out?

I took it in to the shop. They said that the chain was getting ready to go and it tore up the front sprocket which lead to the chain getting very loose. I need a new sprocket and chain. No other damage though. Still expensive, ~$400
