"Property Crime and Typologies Scenario

    Larceny property crime is the one that took place in this case. This is because it was committed by someone who took something of value without permission and with an intention of permanently divesting the property from the rightful owner of the property. The fact that the thief had broken into the bank and he had no permission made this a form of crime. He, however, did not use force and this makes it a lancer type of theft as it does not involve the use of force. The thief also stole the lockbox where the bank manager used to safe keep the cash which means that the stolen lockbox was so valuable hence making this crime to be a larceny crime as it involves the taking away of a valuable commodity without permission.

    The crime seems to have been committed by a professional. This is because there is no record of evidence that is left and he was able to detect any form of detection such as the alarm (Hagan 2011). He had calculated and had made proper planning for his activity and this made him succeed in carrying his theft without alerting anyone and with success. The thief seemed to have high technical skills as portrayed by how he robbed the bank.

    Typologies help in the differentiation of characters and forms of criminal behaviors that help to group criminals into a common social process. This case is crimes centered typology as it involves types of crimes that involve law breaking activities and not harm the people. There are distinct types of this typology and larceny crime is one that can be classified in this category.
