Recommended to do these missions ASAP before gangs begin shooting at you on sight.

Vigilante

20 kills per island gives you 2 star-reductions at your hideout.

Can be started in Police cruiser, SWAT Enforcer van, FBI sedan, or Rhino tank (maybe OL Barracks truck).

(PC) Glitch: going to menu (Esc) next to fugitive will force them to exit their vehicle.

Firefighter

edit

20 fires extinguished per island, 60 total, unlocks the Flamethrower at your hideout.

(PC) Glitch: going to the menu will extinguish any fire.

These missions are the only way to retrieve some rare vehicles for the Import-Export Garage before unlocking the 2nd island.
