— Pierre La Ponce in Mall Shootout.

Pierre La Ponce is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series who appears as a minor character in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. His name is not explicitly mentioned in the game, but is seen on GTA Vice City's official website.

Description[]

Pierre La Ponce is a stereotypically-dressed Frenchman. He was a DGSE agent hired by Juan Cortez to steal guidance chips used in French missile technology. Cortez sends Tommy Vercetti to retrieve the chips from Pierre; the deal, however, is ambushed by the GIGN, and Pierre escapes with the guidance chips. Tommy chases Pierre down and kills him in order to retrieve the chips which he delivers to Cortez after evading police.

Trivia[]

  • He is one of the few minor characters in the 3D Universe that use a unique character model instead of a generic pedestrian model.
  • The name Pierre La Ponce could be a reference to the French words "Pierre ponce", which means "Pumice stone", though it is likely a reference to Ponce, an outdated British slang term for a posh or effeminate person.
