Preferred term

bank robbery  

Definition

  • It is important to examine highly specific types of crime, because each type has a unique criminal opportunity structure. Thus robbery is a general category of crime that includes several distinct variants; for instance, robbery occurs on streets, at post offices, at fast-food restaurants, and near automated teller machines.
