The longer the player aims their weapon at the store attendant, the more money is dropped on the counter for the player to pick up. However, for each drop, the player's wanted level is raised by one star, capping at a 3-star level; the amount of money the player may receive ranges from a low of less than $100 to a maximum of several thousand dollars, rewarding the player increasingly at the expense of being confronted by more aggressive law enforcement.
