Once the player has a Wanted Level, [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|LCPD]] officers give chase and attempt to [[Busted|arrest]] the player; if caught, the player is transported to the nearest [[LCPD in GTA IV Era#Police Stations|police station]] and released a few hours later after a fine (10% of the player's current cash balance) and the confiscation of all [[Weapons in GTA IV |weapons]]. | Once the player has a Wanted Level, [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|LCPD]] officers give chase and attempt to [[Busted|arrest]] the player; if caught, the player is transported to the nearest [[LCPD in GTA IV Era#Police Stations|police station]] and released a few hours later after a fine (10% of the player's current cash balance) and the confiscation of all [[Weapons in GTA IV |weapons]]. | ||
Police officers can arrest the player by holding them at gunpoint -- if the player is in a vehicle, the protagonist surrenders immediately; if on foot, the player can resist arrest by running away and/or fighting back, however this immediately escalates a one-star wanted level to two-stars (three if the player chooses to retaliate with a firearm) and causes the officer to open fire, a risky endeavor at close range. | Police officers can arrest the player by holding them at gunpoint -- if the player is in a vehicle, the protagonist surrenders immediately; if on foot, the player can resist arrest by running away and/or fighting back, however this immediately escalates a one-star wanted level to two-stars (three if the player chooses to retaliate with a firearm) and causes the officer to open fire, a risky endeavor at close range. It is better to simply give up if the cop attempting to arrest you has a shotgun or a carbine rifle especially at low health because the guns are much more deadly at close range. | ||
As the player's Wanted Level increases, law enforcement spends less energy trying to arrest the player and more trying to kill the player at all costs. As such, it is almost impossible to get arrested at a Wanted Level of four stars or higher, although police will attempt vehicular arrests if the opportunity arises. | As the player's Wanted Level increases, law enforcement spends less energy trying to arrest the player and more trying to kill the player at all costs.
