Look we're all for practicing extreme caution, especially when you work at a courthouse, but this may be taking things a little too far.

On Valentine's Day, a bomb squad was called to a federal courthouse due to a suspicious package resting outside on its front steps.


When the Tuscaloosa, Alabama's Hazardous Device Unit arrived at the scene, they "set up a perimeter around the building, blocking adjacent streets to vehicle and foot traffic," according to Today, and had several officers patrolling the perimeter.

However, it was determined that the suspicious package was not a bomb, or any kind of dangerous device or explosive. No, it was just someone's Taco Bell order.

Ultimately, the package was discovered to be just "an assortment of regular and Doritos Locos tacos, along with four beefy five-layer burritos," of which they were "safely disposed of in the Dumpster behind TPD headquarters."

It's a dang shame to let all that good Taco Bell go to waste.
