940 Wagon Rear Hatch Won't Open From Outside 900

As the subject line reads, I'm locked out of my trunk...but only from the outside. The problem just started today (as I'm trying to load groceries no less) and it was working absolutely fine earlier in the day when I was moving stuff around in and out of the trunk.

Here's what I know. When I put the key in the trunk, I can turn it left (to lock) but I don't hear the tumblers anymore. It won't let me turn it right (to unlock) more than a few degrees and I can start to hear the tumblers going (almost like theres somethings blocking it). I tried unlocking and locking the car multiple times with multiple keys and all the other doors work fine except the rear hatch.

However, I can climb over the back seat and open the hatch from the inside without problems, but it's a hassle and I look kind of silly doing it in parking lots... Any help would be MUCH appreciated
