Actron ob2 scanner stuck on 2013 grand caravan port

I attached an actron 9180 scanner to the obd2 port on my Dodge Grand Caravan SXT and now can not get it off. I had a chevy before and never had this problem. Does any one have any suggestions?

The connector on the van has a raised area to allow the scanner connector to lock on. You need to look at this as this might be the issue.

How do I get the scanner over the raised area. Should I just pull? I'm afraid that I am going to break something.

I don't know. I can't see how the connector is attached to the van. If you can remove it to get a better look; or possibly get something under the lock tab to relieve the pressure. Maybe heat it a little with a hair dryer. Scan tool male connectors are usually a softer type plastic and the car connector are a hard plastic.
