pillage

v. loot, take spoils, plunder; rob, steal

n. plundering, taking of spoils, looting

Looting (Origin: 1780–90; Hindi lūṭ, akin to Sanskrit luṇṭhati (he) steals), to rob, sacking, plundering, or pillaging is the indiscriminate taking of goods by force as part of a military or political victory, or during a catastrophe or riot, such as during war, natural disaster, or rioting. The term is also used in a broader (some would argue metaphorical) sense, to describe egregious instances of theft and embezzlement, such as the "plundering" of private or public assets by corrupt or overly greedy corporate executives or government authorities. The proceeds of all these activities can be described as loot, plunder, or pillage.
