Default Broke a lug nut (wheels lock)

I broke a lug nut (broke off a portion of the wheel lock)...Anyone every have this happen and what is the remedy? The lug is still on and I can't get it off...seems it was overtightened and I snapped a piece off when trying to change the wheels on the RX, so only about 3/4 of the wheel lock face is left. I am interested if anyone has any experience with this type of issue...thanks.
