“…Section 296 of the Penal Code defines the term robbery, and goes on to provide in 297 that “297. When five or more persons conjointly commit or attempt to commit a robbery or where the whole number of persons conjointly committing or attempting to commit a robbery and persons present and aiding such commission or attempt amount to five or more, every person so committing, attempting or aiding is said to commit brigandage.” Thus brigandage is robbery, or attempted robbery, by a group of five or more persons acting together.”
