The '''Southside Hoods''', including subdivisions '''Purple Nines''' and '''Redjacks''', are a set of prominent African-American gangs in [[Shoreside Vale]], [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]]. In [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]], set in [[1998]], they are assisted by the [[Leone Family]] in [[Rough Justice|taking]] [[Wichita Gardens]] as their turf and driving out the [[Forelli Family]]. At this point in time, all three gangs were allied and acted as a single gang.

By the time [[Grand Theft Auto III]] takes place in [[2001]], the Purple Nikes begin selling [[SPANK]] on local streets. The Redjacks, particularly their leader [[D-Ice]], is against the drug and starts set a civil war in the Hoods gang against the Purple Nines. The main Southside Hoods members, dressed in green, don't take any notable actions. Eventually the Purple Nines become defunct, after the Redjacks and [[Claude]] defeat them in a [[Rumble|mêlée battle]].

Curiously, the Redjacks and Purple Nines do not attack each other on the streets, and will even assist each other if one is wounded or in battle. This is presumably a glitch in the game, pertaining to all gang member characters being modeled after Southside Hoods. To cover up the error in the plot, D-Ice warns Claude that if he shoots at Nines, some Redjacks would assume they were under fire and shoot at him as well.
