KEARNEY, Neb. - What started as a simple misunderstanding has turned into an ongoing battle for a central Nebraskan homeowner, whose house has become a frequent stop for confused delivery drivers.    

It started in January of this year when Brian Baer of Kearney first noticed a DoorDash delivery driver on his property looking for a  Taco Bell order to pick up.

He added drivers receiving orders from the South Taco Bell location occasionally get an incorrect address and will get sent to Baer's home North of Kearney, despite how improbable it might seem.     

More DoorDash drivers appeared and all had the same story- confused delivery drivers looking for Taco Bell.

"I thought it would stop on its own, but after about 10 encounters, I realized this was not going away," Brian said.

He’s tried talking to customer service and corporate representatives, but hasn’t made any progress. After months of dealing with the confused drivers, Baer recently took matters into his own hands, and implemented a secret weapon against intruders; cat poop.

“I've got these drivers that are coming to me. They're expecting to receive a DoorDash a bag of Taco Bell handed to them. So I'm like, you know what? I'm gonna give them what they're expecting to receive, but I need something that will cause a reaction. So I filled the bag of Taco Bell with, cat poop. Figure that's how to get someone's attention. Right? Not being criminal, but at the same time I just need this to stop.”

Baer has also posted videos to social media about some of the encounters in hopes to reach a wider audience. He currently has over 350,000 views on his videos.

The deliveries have decreased in number but haven’t stopped.  One driver called the Buffalo County Sheriff’s office after receiving one of the bags. Deputies were shocked and confused by the situation but couldn’t offer any additional help to Baer. 

"They were pretty shocked and surprised to say the least. They got a laugh out of it," Baer said.

Baer says the experience has been a roller-coaster of emotions. First he was nervous of strangers being on his property then found it funny that drivers could mistook his house for a Taco Bell, but now is frustrated with how long the ordeal has taken. 

“The comments in the social media are frustrating, hilarious, very comical. Some people on social media go, oh, someone you know, this is a prank. You've been pranked by somebody or you're being punished by somebody or something like that, which is frustrating because I feel like I'm a nice guy. But at the same time I just want this to stop,” he said.

NCN reached out to Taco Bell regional representatives who said they had no additional comment, and DoorDash customer service officials said they have been completing all orders, based on the their previous three week records, adding "everything is running smoothly, and there are no issues regarding this Taco Bell."

Brian is still concerned it could happen again, and that his house may remain the most unorthodox Taco Bell in town.
