Maybe they pushed some security guards around or something and the brilliant staff writer forgot to include that part. Maybe the writer of this story is really superman and he had to run out the office and stop them himself and he used the wrong word, "Robbery". So give him a break.

Robbery is theft by force or the threat of force. Where is the force or threat in this case? Sounds more like burglary of a building (illegal entry to commit a theft, among other things). And if they worked there and allowed to be there during the time of the theft, it would be best classified simply as theft. Is this an attempt by the media to scare the public? Everyone hears robbery thinks someone stuck a pistol in someone's face. Come on Chad, do some research or open a dictionary.
