GTA games are about crimes and criminals. The name Grand Theft Auto itself suggests it.
GTA 5 can be considered the pinnacle of crime in the entire series. From robbing and murder to torturing and forgery, the game has everything to offer.
Being a cop in such a “vice city” would be a tedious job. However, taking on the challenge, developers Cyan, LMS, and Sam from LSPDFR created a mod that enables players to act as police officers in GTA 5.
How to play GTA 5 as police officers using mod
The Los Santos Police Department First Response mod can be downloaded from their official website and installed into the Epic Games and Steam versions of the game. The website offers two versions of the installation file: Automatic install and Manual install.
How to automatically install the LSPDFR mod:
