Rails erb adding extra template without id - ruby-on-rails

Question

Link to image of what I'm talking about
My problem is that there is an extra template being rendered at the bottom of my list without an item id. The icons delete the item they are next to when clicked. The bottom icon is showing up even though it has no item related to it.
Here is my the show html.erb
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-8">
<div class="media">
<br />
<div class="media-body">
<h3><%= #user.email %></h3>
<br />
<%= render partial: 'items/form', locals: {user: #user} %>
<div class="media">
<div class="media-body">
<h4 class="media-heading">
<ul>
<%= render #items %>
</ul>
</h4>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Here is my _item template
<li><%= item.name %><%= link_to "", [current_user, item], remote: true, method: :delete, class: 'glyphicon glyphicon-ok' %></li>
Here is my items controller
class ItemsController < ApplicationController
def create
#item = Item.new(item_params)
#item.user = current_user
if #item.save
flash[:notice] = "Item was saved."
redirect_to user_path(current_user.id)
else
flash.now[:alert] = "There was an error saving the item. Try again."
redirect_to user_path(current_user.id)
end
end
def destroy
#item = Item.find(params[:id])
if #item.destroy
flash[:notice] = "Item deleted"
redirect_to user_path(current_user.id)
else
flash.now[:alert] = "Error deleting the item."
redirect_to user_path(current_user.id)
end
end
private
def item_params
params.require(:item).permit(:name)
end
end
Here is my users controller
class UsersController < ApplicationController
def show
#user = current_user
#item = Item.new
#items = #user.items
end
end
The items belong to the users and have nested routes under user. The last checkmark (the one I want to get rid of) when hovered over shows the link .../users/6/items, while the others that next to items show .../users/6/items/40
Here is my _form.html.erb for items:
<%= form_for [user, user.items.new] do |f| %>
<%= f.text_field :name, class: 'form-control', placeholder: "Enter your to-do item", value: nil, required: true %>
<div class="form-group">
<%= f.submit "Save", class: 'btn btn-success' %>
</div>
<% end %>

Remove
#item = Item.new
from show action in users controller.
class UsersController < ApplicationController
def show
#user = current_user
#items = #user.items
end
end
