Events of GTA San Andreas

Carl Johnson's arrives at Las Venturas through an invitation by Wu Zi Mu, leader of the San Fierro Triads and the owner of The Four Dragons Casino, a casino down at The Strip. Carl learns of Woozie's woes regarding competition, especially with regards to the Mafia; they own Caligula's Palace, another casino at The Strip, and mafia families (Leone Family, Forelli Family, Sindacco Family) have been sabotaging the new business venture. As Carl learns this, he, along with Woozie, is poised to pull off a heist at the mafia-run casino.

One of the steps Carl has to do before the actual heist takes place is to steal four police motorbikes. These are to be used as outriders for the van they would put all the money in. Carl goes to Roca Escalante twice, once outside the LVPD Headquarters and another time nearby the V-Rock Hotel to steal the police motorbikes. Carl then takes the two motorbikes, along with two other found in the other parts in the city, to a moving Packer circling the Julius Thruway.

Trivia

  • The district is based on the Lloyd D George Federal District, Las Vegas.
  • On the bottom floor of the LVPD impound, there is a small room with a Leviathan, a Hydra, and a Rustler. The Leviathan and the Hydra can be entered, but attempting to get these aircraft out of the garage will almost certainly result in death. The Rustler cannot even be entered, due to the fact that it is too low for the player. Also, if trying to enter the Hydra, the player may instead get in the Leviathan.
