Committing several minor crimes in quick succession - such as beating pedestrians up, destroying cars, etc - will earn him one star. Continuing to commit crimes or resisting arrest will often lead to a second star, and will increase. Committing serious crimes (for example, throwing a grenade into a large crowd of bystanders) often earns the player multiple wanted stars outright. | Committing several minor crimes in quick succession - such as beating pedestrians up, destroying cars, etc - will earn him one star.

If the player has one or more wanted stars, nearby [[police]] will give chase and attempt to arrest the player. If the police have successfully arrested the player, the message "[[Busted]]" will appear on the player's screen. An arrest is executed by either knocking or throwing (in the case of vehicular arrests) the player onto the ground and holding him at gunpoint, or by opening the player's car door and holding him at gunpoint. In both cases, the player has no choice but to give up. If arrested, the player is transported to the nearest police station and is released some time later. After the player is released, he will lose $100 and all of his weapons and armor will be confiscated (except in GTA San Andreas after [[Girlfriends in GTA San Andreas|dating]] [[Barbara Schternvart]] in which case your weapons will not be confiscated. In GTA Vice City Stories, you can buy back the weapons for $2000.) | If the player has one or more wanted stars, nearby [[police]] will give chase and attempt to arrest the player.

The player's wanted level can be decreased various ways. A one-star wanted level will disappear on its own if the player "lies low" for a while (stays out of sight and doesn't commit a crime). Higher wanted levels can be lost through picking up [[Police Bribes]] (each one reduces the player's wanted level by one star), running a vehicle through a [[Pay 'n' Spray]] or going to airport and buying a plane ticket to another city in San Andreas. You can also see [[#Lowering Your Stars|Lowering Your Stars]] for more ways. | The player's wanted level can be decreased various ways.
