Saw Stopped Suddenly, won't start again

I have a Black and Decker Saw Force 300. While using it it got a little sideways on a board and stopped. Now it doesn't turn on at all. I tried looking for a breaker in the circuit that might have tripped, but can't find anything.

I have no clue as to how to get it working again. Would like to, as it's a perfectly good saw otherwise.

Unplug the saw. Inspect the power cord for any damage. If none, inspect the switch to make sure it is not damaged or stuck. If you feel comfortable opening up the saw, inspect for any blockage that could have caused the motor to seize. While open, smell the motor for any burnt smell. You can also test the switch with a multimeter at this time to check for continuity.
