The role of the Police in-game is to make crime difficult for the player - and to provide a reliable enemy and a challenge in many missions. This theme is present throughout the entire series, although the exact details vary between games.

In [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], Officers [[Frank Tenpenny]] and [[Eddie Pulaski]] try to frame the protagonist [[Carl Johnson]] for the murder of another [[Ralph Pendelbury|cop]].


The Police work upon a system of [[Wanted Stars]]. If the player is noticed performing a crime (ranging from crashing into a Police car to holding up shops) he may gain a Wanted Star, bringing his Wanted Level to one of six. With a Wanted Level of one, any passing Cop will chase the player and attempt to arrest (or kill) him. Wanted Levels start a one star, and the more stars you get, the more and more the police will try to stop you. With more serious crimes, higher Wanted Levels are issued, and different levels of Law Enforcement will join the pursuit, such as a [[Police Maverick|Police helicopter]], the [[FBI]] and the [[Army]].
