Unhappy Re: trunk latch failure on and off?

Thank God, the beer was in there tonight!
Note for future: figure out how to avoid/fix and be sure to put beer in floorboard of passenger seat. Sheriff's office be damned!
Well, I was all smug about a seemingly flawless Crossfire until today when the trunk wouldnt open.

I did repeat the fob unlock drill to no avail.

Tomorrow, or should I say later today (cant sleep) I shall try your suggestions.

Failing that, how does one get the trunk open?
