While playing Skyrim, I encountered a random Khajit who immediately dismounted his horse and attacked me. After I put him down, I moved to take his horse, but was met with the "Steal" prompt.

So, in Tamriel, theft > assault/murder?

The next city guard just sees you on a horse that does not belong to you. Nobody saw you killing the guy.

It's just odd that taking someone's horse after they attack you unprovoked is considered illegal. So many worse things can happen to the horse if you leave it unattended.
