Lawton, OK

LAWTON, Okla. (KSWO) - Often confused with burglary and robbery, larceny can affect many people. “If I force something out of your hands, or I make a threat towards you asking for that object. You have a robbery. With no force or fear, you’re looking at a larceny, and if you break in somewhere and take said object you’re looking at a burglary,” said Lawton Police Department Public Information Officer Chris Blessing. “In essence, it’s all having to do with taking something from somebody, but it’s in the manner of how it’s taken, defines how we file that charge.”
