2003 Dodge Durango overheats

i have an 2003 Duarango SXT w/the 5.9 liter engine and 90k+ miles on it.my daughter drove the truck approx.14 miles from work and it overheated,spewed coolant all over the drivers side of engine.she claims the indicator in the dash did not come on???.anyway,i let it cool overnight and refilled with fresh coolant 50/50.i started it up no problems.i let it run for about 3-5 mins,checking the ac and heat.i have ac but no heat.i drove it about a quarter mile or so and watched the temp gauge climb.the indicator light came on as i was pulling into the driveway and i shut it off.no coolant leaked but is was HOT!now it has been hot outside 100 deg. plus with this heatwave but it's never done this before during hot weather. please help,AL
