Andreas Sanchez

Background

Andreas Sanchez is an agent of the Federal Investigation Bureau in Grand Theft Auto V and a colleague of Steve Haines and Dave Norton. He works on Haines's off-the-books operations against the rival International Affairs Agency and is part of the small circle that knows the protagonists are being used as deniable muscle.

Events of Grand Theft Auto V

Sanchez is present at the Murrieta Oil Field in Blitz Play Intro, where Haines and Norton brief Michael, Franklin and Trevor on the armored car robbery that becomes Blitz Play. Before Monkey Business, Dave claims Sanchez was supposed to make sure the crew hired extra manpower for the Humane Labs raid, which leaves Haines and Norton joining the job themselves.

His real loyalties are revealed in The Wrap Up. Haines calls Michael and Dave to the Kortz Center, planning to pin his crimes on them. Instead a rival FIB team arrives, and it becomes clear that Sanchez has been working with them all along. IAA agents and Merryweather mercenaries join the fight, turning the meeting into a four-way battle. Haines, wounded in the leg, shoots Sanchez dead before escaping.

Personality

Sanchez is quiet and businesslike in his few scenes, which makes his betrayal of Haines all the more effective.
