A '''burglary''' is the act of illegal entry with the intent to commit a felony.  

Household burglary is the unlawful or forcible entry or attempted entry of a residence. This [[crime]] usually, but not always, involves [[theft]]. The illegal entry may be by [[force]], such as breaking a [[window]] or slashing a screen, or may be without force by entering through an unlocked door or an open window. As long as the person entering has no legal right to be present in the structure a burglary has occurred. Furthermore, the structure need not be the house itself for a burglary to take place; illegal entry of a garage, shed, or any other structure on the premises also constitutes household burglary. If breaking and entering occurs in a [[hotel]] or vacation residence, it is still classified as a burglary for the household whose member or members were staying there at the time the entry occurred.
