Grand Theft Auto V, released by Rockstar Games in 2013, is set in the fictional city of Los Santos, where the Los Santos Police Department, known as the LSPD, patrols the streets and pursues players who break the law. Its police audio became familiar to millions of players through open-world gameplay, wanted-level chases and countless gameplay videos shared online. As GTA V remained popular for years through online play and streaming, short LSPD clips were lifted for soundboards and meme edits, where they still work as a quick shorthand for police attention.
