A police officer can be seen looking at a noticeboard next to a stairway. A large open space from one of the corridors near the stairway has an armor pickup. Window holes titled "processing" and "permits and licensing" are on this floor. The entrance of the station interior is on the second floor, featuring a lobby and waiting area. The interior itself consists of three floors each with different rooms.
Prisoners may be seen talking, smoking or even fighting with other prisoners. Police officers can be found looking at noticeboards on the wall or crouching down while looking inside a cabinet. Three different scenarios are carried out by pedestrians within the station. The interior is fully detailed and is enliven with interior scenarios. The San Fierro Police Headquarters has a hidden interior accessible only in the interior universe with the use of modifications. Only after completing " The Green Sabre", when San Fierro and the surrounding countryside are unlocked. The station serves as a respawn point if the player is arrested in San Fierro. The building is inaccessible to the player, however there is an interior for the building that is only accessible through the interior universe. A Maverick can be found parked on the helipad. These appear to be glitched as they are completely random, allowing even planes, boats and helicopters to spawn. Also in the underground parking lot are up to four "impounded" cars. Two officers may be see getting out of a third police car. A police officer may be seen getting into one of the unlocked police cars and driving out of the parking lot, crashing into the wall in the process. One of the parked police cars will have its hood open with a police officer inspecting the car.
Up to 4 SFPD police cars can be found parked up inside the underground garage. The alarm sound is a traditional low-pitch bell. When sounded, all responding police officers will aim and shoot at the player. This alarm system will sound shortly after a police officer has called for backup when spotted inside the garage area. The garages also have an alarm system, like the Las Venturas Police Headquarters and Los Santos Police Headquarters. The underground also serves as an impound lot as apparent by the impounded vehicles. A sloping passage leads down to the main lot underground. There is also a smaller door next to the garage door for foot access, leading into the garage. A garage door leads to the underground garage but, from the outside only opens to police vehicles, similar to the barriers themselves, however it will open to any vehicle driven from the inside. The two entrances are at the west and east sides of the station.Īs well as the exterior parking lot, an underground parking area is found within the station, accessible through the exterior parking area. Up three police officers can be found guarding the parking lot. The barriers will no longer open if the player is spotted in the parking area by guarding police officers. The exterior parking lot has two automated barriers which allow access to the parking lot, but only to police vehicles. Īlong the station front are several fire escape stair ways mounted on the side of the building, as well as two American flags. When the officer calls for backup, they will shout " officer in need of back up", and will have the same voice as one of the 5 LSPD police officer voices, meaning the same audio file will be played regardless of which voice they use normally. If the player kills officers before they are able to spot the player, they will not receive a wanted level. The impound garage is a restricted area If police officers inside the garages or around the parking lot exterior spot the player inside the station grounds, they will aim at the player while calling for backup, before a 3 star wanted level is attained. The complex consists of a large station office, rear exterior parking, an underground parking lot consisting of an impound garage. The cable car runs adjacent to the building. Located at the southeastern corner of Downtown, San Fierro, the building rests on the side of a steep hill and houses a helipad on its northwestern corner, which is only meters above the street.
