Under Alabama law, theft involves unlawfully taking property with intent to deprive the owner, while burglary requires unlawful entry into a building with intent to commit a crime. Theft focuses on the taking of property, whereas burglary emphasizes unlawful entry, regardless of whether theft occurs. If the alleged theft or burglary action involves force or threat of force, then it would also qualify as robbery.
