A man in the US city of Philadelphia wound up trapped in a rubbish truck's compactor, possibly after falling asleep in a dumpster.
Firefighters spent more than two hours trying to free the 33‑year‑old.
Media reports said they had use ladders to get into the vehicle so they could remove bags of rubbish to reach the man.
The ordeal happened outside The Kintock Group home, which serves as an interim stop before state and federal prisoners are released.
Authorities initially said the man escaped from the facility, but a prisons department spokeswoman says no one was missing from a roll call.
The man was taken to Temple Hospital for treatment, suffering critical injuries to his abdomen, hip and leg.
