Family connects caravan to SNCF station electricity in Arc-et-Senans

On Monday 20 July 2026 at about 10:30, gendarmes from the Saint-Vit brigade community intervened at Arc-et-Senans station after an SNCF agent reported an unauthorised electrical connection. A family had forced the lock on the station's electricity meter to power a caravan parked nearby. Upon arrival, the person disconnected the installation. A complaint will be offered to the railway company for damage and illegal connection; legal follow-up depends on SNCF's decision to press charges.
