Bank Robbery
Bank robberies do not require the use of a weapon; however, the use of a weapon can increase a personโs sentence.
Robbery vs. Burglary
Robbery is defined as taking or attempting to take something of value from another through the use of force, threat of force and/or by putting the victim in fear. In contrast, burglary is the unlawful entry, or breaking into, a place to commit a felony and/or theft. If the bank is closed and someone breaks into, it is therefore categorized as a burglary and not a robbery
