The '''San Andreas Police Department''' ('''SAPD''') is the main law enforcement agency servicing the state of [[State of San Andreas|San Andreas]] in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. | |||
The SAPD is broken up into four sub-departments, with different areas to patrol: | |||
*[[Los Santos Police Department]] | |||
*[[San Fierro Police Department]] | |||
*[[Las Venturas Police Department]] | |||
*[[Country/Desert Police]] | |||
{{toc}} | |||
==Uniforms== | |||
In [[Los Santos]] and [[San Fierro]], the officers have black uniforms and there are also [[Biker Police]] patrolling the area. In [[Las Venturas]], the officers wear a tan/beige coloured uniform, as in Las Vegas. Different police units in the rural areas of [[Red County]], [[Flint County]], [[Bone County]], [[Tierra Robada]], and [[Whetstone]]wear cowboy hats, black shirt and cream-coloured pants. | |||
==Vehicles== | |||
Each city has a separate version of the [[Police Car]], marked with the individual city's abbreviation (eg LSPD, SFPD, LVPD). Los Santos and San Fierro also patrol using [[Police Bike]]s. Rural areas drive a [[Police Ranger]] (based on a [[Rancher]]. | |||
==Weapons== | |||
==Police Stations== | |||
There are three main police stations - one in each city. Each of these has an alarmed garage containing police vehicles from that city. The police station in [[Las Venturas]] is enterable, and contains offices and cells. | |||
There are also a number of small police stations in rural villages. | |||
==Wanted Level== | |||
:''For information about how the SAPD pursue the player, see [[Wanted Level in GTA III Era]].'' | |||
'''One Star''' | |||
At one star the police aren't lethal, or that interested in trying to [[Busted|arrest]] you, or [[Wasted|kill]] you. Getting away from them is the easiest thing as they will chase you but won't out forth that much effort. Unlike in the two previous games, they will shoot at you but only if you brandish a firearm. Hiding for a little bit will see that this wanted level will be diminished. | At one star the police aren't lethal, or that interested in trying to [[Busted|arrest]] you, or [[Wasted|kill]] you.

'''Two Stars''' | |||
At two stars the police will try harder to bring you down. Police will become more aggressive, the coast guard will be placed in the waters for extra help, and will shoot at you regardless. Getting this wanted level can be from committing a more serious crime than just one for one star, like blowing up a car, or attacking an officer, with a melee weapon. The worst weapon here will be the pistol, and or nightstick. | At two stars the police will try harder to bring you down.

'''Three Stars''' | |||
When three stars are attained the police will start to set up roadblocks with police cars and officers behind them.
