Had this happen recently on my '96 Blazer. Slide a flat screwdriver blade between hood lip and top of grille and you can move the latch mechnism to left which should allow it to open. Took me several tries. Then, when it partially opens, use release lever that will open it from safety position. Tip: put masking tape on top of grille to protect it from the screwdriver leveraging action.
