Sharks in GTA Vice City

The Sharks are a gang of thugs in Vice City that hang out around outside the North Point Mall and in several dilapadated mansions in Prawn Island. In GTA Vice City Stories, one of their businesses is taken over by Victor. In GTA Vice City, they stole Big Mitch Baker's bike and held it hostage Downtown. The leader of the gang also betrayed Ricardo Diaz and stole his drug shipment.

They are listed as the "Streetwannabe's," with use of the apostrophe, in the Vice City stats, but the Shark logos on the back of their denim jackets, along with graffiti on buildings and their gang cars, has led some to call them the Sharks. The Streetwannabes are mostly seen wearing denim jackets, jeans and red bandanas. In GTA:VCS they are seen wearing brightly coloured shirts, light brown or grey pants and berets.

Of interesting note is that certain unrelated "gangs" in Vice City are also listed as Streetwannabes. This includes army soldiers and "gangs" that show up in certain missions, such as the Forellis in the final mission, the attackers in the "All Hands on Deck!" mission, and the courier and bodyguards of a counterfeiting syndicate in the "Hit the Courier" mission (it is unknown why the counterfeiting syndicate is made up of women).
