I really can't explain why it decided to do that after it was charging, but I believe that your phone is 'bricked'.
There's an excellent guide that even I use in case I have issues with my BlackBerry.
Follow the directions in the guide to, hopefully, alleviate your issue.

That must be a battery pack problem. This problem also happened in my black berry curve. I did buy a new battery for replacement and after that it worked well until today. So you better try this solution. But if this thing won't work. There must be a hardware problem. Bring your phone to a repair center to fix the problem.
