Theft CrimeTheftTheft is the broad act of stealing, that is the taking of property from another, depriving the rightful owner of the same. Larceny is simple theft, such as shoplifting from a store, or pickpocketing. When force or intimidation against the victim is used to effect the theft, as in a mugging or carjacking, the charge is robbery. Burglary, on the other hand, entails the breaking and entering a structure, usually by stealth and usually to commit a theft or other crime. Embezzlement is the misappropriation of property which has been entrusted with an indivual, by that individual, for his or her own use.
