Theft is a synonym for larceny. Petty theft (taking of property that belongs to another person valued at less than $500) is classified as a misdemeanor while grand theft is a felony. Robbery (taking by force), burglary (taking by unlawful entry) and embezzlement (stealing from employer) are all forms of theft which are designated by the individual crimes and typically have specific criminal charges and statutory punishments. Other examples of theft would include theft from buildings where the defendant has lawful access, purse snatching, pick pocketing, shoplifting and others that are similar in nature.
