Door latch won’t open, so door won’t close properly.

I’m in the middle of a busy Target parking and it’s in the 90s. My door is unable to close because of the latch not opening up inside of the door, I’ve included a picture. Sorry if it’s been posted before but I can’t search for shit in this small ass phone. My bad luck continues.

sorta had this happen to me, i just cleaned the crud in there. What happened was I pulled the latch down and tried to close it so it further locked itself in close position. I imagine maybe some grease could help.
