As others have suggested, try to get in from underneath with something slim and push the latch stem out of the catch. Take your time so as not to damage anything. Also, a call to Newmar might be helpful.
This same thing happened to me twice. Fortunately, I could get to my latches from adjoining compartments. Both times, there was a metal latch inside the assembly that broke. I was able to get replacement parts from a local dealership along with a couple of spares for when the next time it happens.
