The Los Santos County Sheriff's Department (LSSD) is the local county law enforcement operating in Los Santos County, San Andreas.

Trivia

• Their badge features a beaver in the center, instead of the bear that's in the center of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's badge.
• The sheriff's offices in Blaine County belong to the Los Santos Sheriff's Department as their units patrol the area and there is a flag atop of the buildings bearing the LSSD's badge.
• On rare occasions, one or two cars may respond to something the player does, along with the LSPD, when at Vespucci Beach. This is likely just a glitch.
  • This may be caused by the fact that, along the shore and in the water, the player is considered outside of Los Santos proper and, thus, the responsibilty of the sheriff's department.
  • This can also happen in the outskirts of Vinewood Hills.
• LSSD deputies have country accents, unlike the LSPD who have more urban accents.
• The abbreviation of the Los Santos Sheriff (LSSD) is similar to the abbreviation used by the drug Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD).
• Occasionally while pursing NPCs or the player, LSSD deputies will erroniously be given LSPD voice lines and announce themselves as such. This appears to frequently happen with female deputies.
• Like the LSPD, the LSSD has both male and female officers. The female officers seem to spawn more frequently than the LSPD. One can be often found next to a Sheriff Cruiser in front of the Sandy Shores Medical Center.
• When deputies wear body armor, it reads "Police" as opposed to "Sheriff". This is likely a developer oversight.
• The Paleto Bay Sheriff's Office was enterable in the beta version.
• When chasing the player and entering the Los Santos area, they will often transfer the pursuit over to the LSPD.
• The male deputy is the only police officer model in the game that has a nightstick in it's belt. The LSPD just wear the ring that it stays on.
