sounds like the mechanism came undone inside , you would have to take the panel off to get to it , and unless you can get in through the back or some other door you'll have to get the cops , AAA , a locksmith or good samaritan to wedge the door open and trip the lock with a "coat hanger"

Does the passenger's door have a place for the key? If not then a locksmith will have to "slim jim" the door mechanism to get it open.
