Forcible entry
Forcible entry is the act of entering a house or building with destructive methods. It is typically illegal. Police, firefighters, and EMTs may need to forcibly enter a building in an emergency. Means of entry range from the simple breaking of a glass window to the use of specialized tools to defeat security locks or to cut an access hole. Related crimes include malicious destruction of property (e.g., the damaged door/window/locks), and possession of burglarious tools.
Forcible entry is distinguishable from the broader crime of "breaking and entering" which might not include any actual damage from the force used to "break" a way in, such as when one opens an unlocked door to private premises without license to do so, or tampers with a locking mechanism and later takes advantage of the defect.
