Answer:

"Strain Theory of Deviance"

Explanation:

According to my research on sociology and criminology this incident is best classified under the "Strain Theory of Deviance". This theory states that social structures are pushing citizens within the community towards committing  crimes because it makes it impossible for them to achieve the same goals as others. It was developed in 1938 by American Sociologist, Robert K. Merton.
