FL Instacart Drivers Shot At For Delivering To Wrong Address: Reports

SOUTHWEST RANCHES, FL — A couple working for Instacart was shot at when they mistakenly want to the wrong address to deliver groceries in South Florida, according to multiple reports.

Waldes Thomas Jr., 19, and his girlfriend, Diamond D'arville, 20, were unfamiliar with the neighborhood as they tried to find the right address for an April 15 delivery when they drove onto the wrong property in Southwest Ranches, ABC News said.

The property’s owner, Antonio Caccavale, 43, sent his teenage son to tell them to leave. When the boy called for help, Caccavale approached the car, which he said was driving “erratically,” reports said. He claims they ran over logs, boulders and a fence at his home.

Caccavale told Davie police that the car ran over his foot, and he feared for his family’s safety, so he pulled out a gun and shot the tires several times, according to reports.

D’arville told NBC 6 that after they told someone at the property that they were with Instacart, he got “in his truck and reverses, and he pulls behind us.”

As the couple tried to drive away, they saw a man with a gun.

"I had seen him pull out a gun and that's when I said, 'We got to go, we got to go,'" she told the news outlet "I was scared, I'm not going to lie."

Their car was struck by bullets several times.

"We could've been dead; our window was down and they're shooting,” the couple told CBS News. “It's not good to be trigger-happy when you have a gun."

Now, Broward County State Attorney Harold Pryor is calling for an investigation into the shooting, which he called “very disturbing,” according to The Washington Post.

“The safety of the entire Instacart community is incredibly important to us, and we take immediate action when we receive reports of violence or threats of violence made against any member of the Instacart community. "Instacart said in a statement to NBC6. "We have reached out to the shopper and will cooperate with law enforcement on any ongoing investigation."
