You can rob shops for a little cash. When robbing a shop 
aim at the casher but don’t shot them yet. Instead wait 
for three piles of cash to build up. Then end the cashers 
life before he / she can sound the alarm but most likely 
there are already cops on the way. So book it out of there.

will go after other carjackers and break up gang fights. 
Again you have a 6 star limit.
1 star- cop cars will slowly fallow you. They have colt 
45s and nightsticks
2 stars – two cursers in hot pursuit, they may shoot first 
ask questions later
3 stars – now they have Uzi 9mms and cheetahs, they also 
lay spike strips
4 stars – swat teams in enforcers and swat troops roping 
out of choppers
5 stars – all of the above + FBI packing mp5s and colt 45s
6 stars – army is after you now carrying mp5s, grenades, 
and colt 45s,
