The '''police''' (also referred to as ''cops'', ''pigs'', ''babylon'' by Rastafarians, or ''heat'') are uniformed officers responsible for enforcing the law. They ensure public and social order, through the legitimized and restricted use of force. The police are present in all [[Grand Theft Auto]] games. | The '''police''' (also referred to as ''cops'', ''pigs'', ''babylon'' by Rastafarians, or ''heat'') are uniformed officers responsible for enforcing the law.

The police work upon a [[Wanted Level|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, [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] or even the [[Military|Army]]. | The police work upon a [[Wanted Level|wanted level]] system against the player.
