Burglary vs Robbery
Just an FYI regarding the homes being broken into. These are burglaries, not robberies. A house does not get robbed. A person gets robbed by means of armed or strong armed.
The purse snatching in the parking lot could be referred to as strong arm robbery (or armed if the perp presented or acted like he had a weapon) depending on the state statute.
Just want to clarify because many don't know the difference and can inaccurately report that there have been a string of robberies.
