Robbery is the crime of seizing property through violence or intimidation, sometimes resulting in the murder of the victim; a perpetrator of a robbery is a robber. This is different from embezzlement, larceny, and theft. Piracy is a type of robbery. Armed robbery involves the use of a weapon. Highway robbery takes place outside and in a public place. Robbery is generally an urban crime. Carjacking is the act of stealing a car from a victim, usually at gunpoint. Banks are often the target of bank robberies.

In English law, a robbery is any theft involving the use of force, or the threat of force, to carry out the theft, see theft in English Law.
