Tenpenny sends CJ after a reporter who is digging into C.R.A.S.H.

Mission no.

Area
San Fierro

Overview

In Snail Trail, Tenpenny and Pulaski turn up at the Doherty garage and order CJ to kill a young journalist investigating Pulaski, plus the contact he is due to meet. CJ follows the reporter by train before killing both with a sniper rifle.

Tenpenny and Pulaski turn up at the garage, showing CJ they can reach him anywhere. The young journalist is investigating Pulaski, and C.R.A.S.H. wants him and his contact dead. The mission can be frustrating because the train must be followed without losing it.

Walkthrough

  1. Collect the sniper rifle Tenpenny hid at the construction site.
  2. Go to Cranberry Station and follow the reporter onto the train.
  3. Keep pace with the train without being spotted, and follow him when he leaves it.
  4. Kill the reporter and his contact before they can talk.

Tips

  • Keep your distance while tailing the reporter.
  • Line up a clean head shot with the sniper rifle at the meeting.
  • Use a fast car to keep pace with the train.
  • Kill both targets at the meeting before either escapes.

Rewards and unlocks

There is no money reward, as with most C.R.A.S.H. missions.
