Master the Vice Assassination and Bus Assassination missions in Grand Theft Auto V with this guide. Learn how to achieve Clean Escape and Hit and Run Gold Medals.

Alright, let's get these two assassination missions done. They're pretty straightforward, but we'll make sure you nail those Gold Medals.

Vice Assassination TL;DR: Head to the marker, wait for the target to meet the prostitute, and take him out with a sniper rifle. Then, just drive away cleanly.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, hop into Franklin's car and head over to the 'L' marker on your map. That's where Lester's call will kick things off.
  2. 2
    After you hang up with Lester, make your way to the location of the prostitute. You'll need to wait in your car for her to show up.
  3. 3
    Once she's in the car with you, drive to the target's location. He'll show up in a convertible and stop to chat with the prostitute. This is your moment! Equip your sniper rifle and take him out.
  4. 4
    As soon as the shot is fired, get back in your car and drive away from the area. Don't stick around, and definitely don't get the cops involved if you want that 'Clean Escape' medal.

Bus Assassination TL;DR: After the Vice Assassination, go back to Lester, then drive to the bus station, find the target on his bike, and run him over with the bus.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Once you've wrapped up the Vice Assassination, head back to Lester to get the next job.
  2. 2
    This time, you need to drive to the bus station. Grab one of the buses and start driving the route.
  3. 3
    Keep your eyes peeled for the target. He'll eventually appear on a bicycle. As soon as you spot him, floor it and run him over with the bus. That's how you get the 'Hit and Run' medal!
🏆 Gold Medal Requirements
✓Clean Escape: Complete the Vice Assassination without alerting the cops. Basically, take your shot and leave without causing a scene.
✓Hit and Run: Kill the target in the Bus Assassination mission using the bus itself. No fancy shooting here, just good old-fashioned vehicular manslaughter.
Tips
  • For the Vice Assassination, find a good vantage point away from the action. A sniper rifle is your best friend here. Wait for the target to stop for the prostitute – that's the perfect window.
  • When you're driving the bus, keep an eye out for the target on his bike. He's not hard to miss once he appears. Just remember to hit him directly with the bus for the medal.
