Door Won't Close - 420 SEL

Hello, long story short, I opened my rear right passenger door this afternoon to about the 1/3 open rest point and the hinge made a dull creaking/groaning sound. It will not close - pretty much locked in place. I know I cannot close it without certainly breaking the hinge and probably damaging the body too. Also, the front passenger door was open and I don't dare close it because it will crush the frozen rear door.

If possible could someone please diagnose the problem and explain a possible solution? I'm not that mechanically inclined so I might have to have the car towed but not too sure how I will 1.) get the car out of the garage with doors open and 2.) keep the doors stationary while towing the car (can I even tow it with both doors open on a flatbed?). Thank you much. I appreciate it.
