§ 200.380. Definition; penalty
1. Robbery is the unlawful taking of personal property from the person of another,
or in the person's presence, against his or her will, by means of force or violence
or fear of injury, immediate or future, to his or her person, or the person of a member
of his or her family, or of anyone in his or her company at the time of the robbery. A taking is by means of force or fear if force or fear is used to: (a) Obtain or retain possession of the property; (b) Prevent or overcome resistance to the taking; or (c) Facilitate escape. The degree of force used is immaterial if it is used to compel acquiescence to the
taking of or escaping with the property. A taking constitutes robbery whenever it appears that, although the taking was fully
completed without the knowledge of the person from whom taken, such knowledge was
prevented by the use of force or fear. 2. A person who commits robbery is guilty of a category B felony and shall be punished
by imprisonment in the state prison for a minimum term of not less than 2 years and
