Robbery is not a property crime.

My understanding is that deadly force is not allowed to be used by a civilian in response to a property crime. (Texas has an exception if you are on your own property and it's night time.) You see shoplifters in a store, if you want to help you can tell the manager and/or call 911, but you don't get to use deadly force unless they are also using or reasonably appear about to use deadly force, for example they display a weapon.
