Employees say they arrived at work that morning and noticed an open door, WJW reported. When they peeked inside, the employees found something entirely unexpected: a man.

Police believe the 30-year-old man — who was found unconscious — had been at the brewery to do maintenance work on the coolers, Cleveland.com reported. Officials suspect he was stuck in the cooler overnight.

The man was taken to an area hospital for treatment, and police have not commented on his condition, WOIO reported.
