Robbery
robbery, theft, break-in, burglary, housebreaking,
mugging, pickpocketing, shoplifting
Robbery, of course, takes many forms.
Pickpocketing is taking money from someone’s pocket or bag in a public place without them noticing.
Shoplifting is stealing goods from the shelves of shops.
Mugging is taking someone’s money in the street with threats of violence.
Burglary or housebreaking is breaking in or breaking into houses or other buildings, entering them by force in order to steal things in a break-in. These are all types of robbery or theft, although robbery is usually used to talk about stealing artworks from museums.
Robbery is used in combinations. For example, in armed robbery, victims are threatened with a gun. Bullion robbery is stealing gold bars. Street robbery is another name for mugging. A hold-up is a robbery where a gun or other weapon is used. Robberies like this happen at gunpoint, or at knifepoint.
Words for a spectacular robbery include heist and raid. A smash-and-grab raid involves breaking a shop window or a show case to steal things and running or driving away with them very fast. A ram-raid involves breaking through the front of a building by driving into it with a car, and then stealing things in the building.
