'''Ganton''' is a district located in the eastern part of [[Los Santos]]. Ganton is a stronghold of the [[Grove Street Families]], and is populated by many Grove Street Family gang members. These include [[Carl Johnson]], [[Sweet|Sweet Johnson]] and [[Ryder|Lance "Ryder" Wilson]]. Former residents at the beginning of [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] include [[Beverly Johnson|Beverly]] and [[Brian Johnson]] (both deceased) and [[Big Smoke|Melvin "Big Smoke" Harris]] (who moved to Idlewood). | |||
==Events of [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]== | |||
Ganton is the main stronghold of the Grove Street Families, but begins to come under increasing pressure from [[Ballas]] gang members, hoping to take the area for the Ballas. This is facilitated by Big Smoke, Ryder and [[Mark Wayne|Mark "B-Dup" Wayne]], who are secretly aligned with the Ballas. Drugs have become a problem in Ganton, mainly through Smoke and Ryder buying drugs off of [[Mike Toreno]], [[T-Bone Mendez]] and [[Jizzy B.]] (the [[Loco Syndicate]]). | |||
Ganton eventually falls into the hands of the Ballas gang after Carl Johnson is taken to Whetstone by [[C.R.A.S.H.]] and Sweet Johnson is arrested and imprisoned. The Grove Street Families disband with no leader, although former gang members continue to wear the green. They more than likely continue to reside in Ganton, although they are not visible on the streets during Carl and Sweet's absence. The former Grove Street Family gang members, under the influence of Big Smoke, co-operate with the Ballas and [[Los Santos Vagos]]. | |||
Carl and Sweet (released via Mike Toreno) later return to Ganton, which is disarray due to the influx of drugs. They re-claim Ganton as Grove Street territory (re-establishing the gang), and use Ganton as a base for invading other districts (such as [[Idlewood]]). Ganton, along with the rest of Los Santos, is later plagued by riots following the acquittal of [[Frank Tenpenny]], although Carl and Sweet manage to 'lock-down' Grove Street, and bring stability to Ganton as a whole. Ganton serves as the place of death for Tenpenny, who crashes a [[Firetruck]] over a bridge and into Grove Street. | |||
