Apt name for a burglar (3)

I believe the answer is:

rob

(Other definitions for rob that I've seen before include "Steal or purloin" , "Hold up" , "Unlawfully take property from (someone)" , "Mug, say" , "Take without consent from the owner" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post and the Universal.
