A person commits Robbery if he or she takes property from someone else and (while taking that property) assaults the other person or places them in fear of imminent bodily injury or death. For example, if someone punched another person (who isn't elderly or disabled - that would be Aggravated Robbery) while taking their wallet, that would be Robbery. Or if someone threatened to kill another person in order to take their money, that would also be Robbery. It's even Robbery if, while shoplifting, someone punches the store employee trying to stop them from leaving the store.
