Ending ruby program if a given condition is met

Basically, I am just trying to stop the program from running the rest of the lines if a certain condition is met.

unless raw_information.first
  puts "No results were returned for that query"
  break
end

However, before the program even runs I get this error:

Invalid break compile error (SyntaxError)

What is the proper way to do this?
