Door latch jammed

91 300 te 4matic.
Seatbelt didn't retract and got wrapped around the strike on the jamb.
Closed the door not noticing.
Door didn't close completely and the latch didn't completely engage through the strike. Cannot open it though. Door will move slightly (as if in the half latched position) and is about a 1/2" out from the normally closed position.
Also, lock will not push down.
Tried pushing, prying, pushing screwdriver from outside along jamb to try and push latch into open position.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
