This happend to me as well but it was above freezing when it happened. It got worse a couple of weeks later when th eweather got to the freezing mark and became undrivable. My mustang had about 62K miles at the time.
It ended up being the e-brake cables, but do to the mileage I changed the rear calipers as I noticed the e-brake lever was a little lazy as well. I notced that the rubber boots had deteriorated and allowed water to get in causing the left wheel to lock.
These 2005+ mustangs also seem to be snesitive to parking brake adjustment which in cold weather can cause it to freeze as well. I have an 05 GT with 15K miles that did the same thing in the cold until I adjusted the tension, since then no problems.
