A worker was found dead inside a walk-in freezer at a Brooklyn bakery Thursday morning after getting locked in overnight, police said.
Mahamadou Dansogo, 33, was discovered at 8:40 a.m. by a coworker who opened the Beigel’s Bakery warehouse on Avenue D, near Ditmas Avenue, in East Flatbush, according to cops.
He had no visible trauma to his body, cops said.
The walk-in freezer was described as being like a meat locker, a police source said.
“I’m not sure how long you can survive in one of those,” the source said.
It’s believed he was in the freezer overnight, a law enforcement source said.
He was pronounced dead at the scene.
