Not to be rude, just an educational oportunity, these crimes are not classified as burglaries or robberies (in my state anyway, could be different down here). In my twenty plus years of law enforcement/criminal prosecutions burglary referes to breaking into a residence, if a business is broken into it is charged as a B & E (breaking and entering) with different code sections and penalties for each. Burglary is a more serious felony because of the potential for the criminal interacting with the victim etc.

I don't think two breakins warrant a suggestion of prevalent crime in TV.
