Mission walkthrough

  1. Search the police database

    Obtain a police car and access its computer while stationary. Search the records for Lyle Rivas and mark his address on the map. If you are wanted, lose the police before trying to use the computer.

  2. Visit the address

    Drive to Rivas’s home and approach the mission marker. He escapes when confronted, so return to your vehicle and begin the pursuit immediately.

  3. Finish the chase

    Follow Rivas through the route and wait for a workable opportunity to disable his car or eliminate him. The early chase is scripted until he leaves Bohan, so surviving those turns is more useful than unloading all your ammunition at once.

Key point

Do not wait for Rivas to stop voluntarily. Once the chase opens up, use controlled drive-by shots or a road position that lets you bring the target down.
