Theft crime charges are typically categorized as petit theft or grand theft. When a person commits theft, he/she will be charged with either a misdemeanor or felony offense, depending upon the value of the property that was stolen, whether the person carried a weapon during the theft, the type of theft committed, and the person’s criminal history.

When a person attempts to steal another person’s property, but uses violence, force, or a weapon to carry out the crime, he or she will face robbery charges.  In the state of Florida, people accused of robbery may face charges for “armed robbery” or “strong armed robbery,” both of which are felony offenses.
