What is 'Burglary' defined as?

  1. Stealing from a person

  2. Illegal entry to commit a crime

  3. Destruction of property

  4. Robbing a bank

The correct answer is: Illegal entry to commit a crime

Burglary is defined as the unlawful or unauthorized entry into a building or structure with intent to commit a crime. This differs from stealing from a person, as that would fall under the category of robbery. Destruction of property is vandalism, which is also a different type of crime. Robbing a bank is a specific type of crime and not the general definition of burglary.
