The FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program defines robbery as taking or attempting to take anything of value from someone by force or threat of force or violence, and/or by putting the victim in fear of force. This means that for a robbery to take place, nothing actually has to be stolen. “Robbery includes the fear of force” or the actual use of force, explains Joshua Ritter, formerly with the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office and now working as a criminal defense lawyer as a partner with the El Dabe Ritter law practice. “It’s a violent crime.” The details vary by state, but in general, there are two types of robbery: armed robbery and strong-arm robbery. An armed robbery includes the use of a weapon, while a strong-arm robbery occurs when someone attempts to use his own physical strength to commit the crime. What Is Burglary? Burglary is the unlawful entry of a structure to commit a felony or theft. Entry does not have to be obtained by the use of force. The FBI's UCR Program classifies burglary into three categories: forcible entry, unlawful entry where no force is used, and attempted forcible entry. The UCR's definition of a "structure" includes an apartment, barn, house trailer, or houseboat when used as a permanent dwelling, office, railroad car, stable, or vessel (i.e., ship). Automobiles are not included in the definition. “Burglary is entry into a place or remaining in a place with the intent to commit a crime or an offense," explains Matthew Troiano, a criminal defense lawyer and former state prosecutor who is now a partner and chair of the Criminal Practice Group at Einhorn, Barbarito, Frost & Botwinick. "It doesn’t have to be predicated on theft.” Is burglary a violent crime? Because burglary is a crime against property, it isn’t necessarily a violent crime. However, it has the potential to become one if the burglar encounters the occupants of the building. The way this crime is handled by law enforcement can vary for that reason. “Burglary isn’t necessarily a violent crime, but it can be,” Ritter explains. “Breaking into someone’s house when nobody is there is treated less seriously than when people are home.”

The way this crime is handled by law enforcement can vary for that reason. “Burglary isn’t necessarily a violent crime, but it can be,” Ritter explains. “Breaking into someone’s house when nobody is there is treated less seriously than when people are home.” When burglary does become a violent crime, it’s often when a robbery takes place during the burglary. The situation changes if the burglar is armed during the commission of the crime. “If the burglar is going into a house and has a gun, it’s going to be a first-degree robbery,” Troiano says. Jail time and fines will be higher as a result. What Is Theft? According to Ritter, theft is simply taking property that’s not yours. It can be a misdemeanor if the stolen item is under a certain dollar amount, and it can include taking material items, services, money, or anything else of value. There are varying degrees of theft. For example, grand theft refers to stealing something valuable, but the exact value depends on the state or locality where the crime takes place. Theft of a service happens when you use a service without paying for it. Examples include tapping into cable television or electrical power without having an account to pay for those services. Theft is a separate crime from robbery or burglary, but it’s related in many cases. There can be theft without either robbery or burglary, such as if someone takes a product from a store but doesn't break into the store or rob someone in it. Likewise, a robbery may or may not involve theft. The same is true of a burglary, where the key element is entering a building, not taking property from it. Theft doesn't need to include physical objects or money. For example, someone's identity, intellectual property, or trade secrets can be stolen.
