AdvertisementThis as-told-to story is based on a conversation with Owen Dwyer, an Instacart shopper in Maryland. Business Insider has verified his identity and employment; corroborated details of the stabbing through police records; and viewed messages from Instacart support and insurance claims Dwyer filed after he was stabbed. Instacart's insurance provider responded to Dwyer's second claim after Business Insider reached out to Instacart for comment on this story. Dwyer told Business Insider he had not received an estimated payment total as of press time. "The safety of the entire Instacart community is incredibly important to us, and we take immediate action when we receive reports of violence against any member of the Instacart community," an Instacart spokesperson told Business Insider.
