Statement 1 is correct—force or threat is essential. Statement 2 is correct—fear of injury is included. Statement 3 is incorrect—the section says "attempts to cause" or "puts in fear"; direct causing of hurt is not mandatory. Statement 4 is correct—the force/threat must be "in order to the committing of theft" or in its commission. Statements 1, 2, and 4 are correct.
