Heading: Robbery-Related Counts

Text: Defendant argues that any and all robbery-related counts pertaining to Huang and Arriola were not supported by sufficient evidence in light of the fact that there was no evidence showing a taking or an attempt to take property `from [their] person or immediate presence.' A.R.S. § 13-1902(A). A.R.S. § 13-1902 requires only that force be used `against any person,' not necessarily only against the person dispossessed of the property. State v. McGuire, 131 Ariz. 93, 96, 638 P.2d 1339, 1342 (1982). Force was used to prevent all three of the victims in this case from resisting the taking of property from the El Grande Market. This action falls within the purview of A.R.S. § 13-1902(A).
