Aggravated Robbery

Aggravated robbery is a serious crime that involves stealing property from someone while using or threatening to use violence. This typically means the robber may be armed with a weapon or has caused harm or fear to the victim during the act. The "aggravated" aspect indicates that the crime is more severe than simple theft due to the presence of threats or violence, resulting in harsher legal penalties. Essentially, it combines robbery with an element of intimidation or violence, making it a felony in most jurisdictions.
