The Police work upon a [[Wanted Level]] system against the player. If the player is noticed performing a crime, he may gain a Wanted Star (increasing his wanted level). More serious crimes will grant a higher wanted level. Police responses vary depending on the wanted level, ranging from foot chases to calling in the helicopter, [[FBI]] or even [[Army]]. | The Police work upon a [[Wanted Level]] system against the player.
