Space Key On Macbook Pro not working and stuck

I was typing in Safari when my space key started glitching. I couldn't open settings to shut it down unless I opened photos then pressed the apple icon to restart it. When i powered it back on, I could type, but when i pressed the spacebar it just kept typing space to infinity. I restarted it again and the same thing happened Could someone help me fix this?

This is not user fixable, you will need to take the laptop in for service.


When it is in for service, have them check the battery condition. If the battery is starting to swell, which is a safety issue, it will create keyboard typing anomalies.
