If the handle is just broken use pliers to pull the cable that hooks to the handle.
If the cable is broken you will have to work through the grill. You will see on the drivers side of the hood latch where the cable enters. You can remove the cable holding bolt if applicable and pull the cable there.
If all that fails you will have to remove the latch by removing the 2 screws on both sides of the latch.

We don't have any pics but try a long bar through front or if a panel on bottom remove that then try the long bar or screwdriver to unlatch it. It' snot easy
