A motorhome was stolen on Rue de Liège in Lontzen during the night of 30 July 2026, after a failed attempt two nights earlier. On the night of 27–28 July, the same thieves tried to steal it but were foiled when the owner's dog barked continuously between 2 and 3 a.m. The owner checked the vehicle; police found it had been opened with an electronic device and a short-circuit attempt was detected, causing material damage. The second attempt, two days later, succeeded.
