The Grove Street Dealer is a minor character appearing in Grand Theft Auto V.
History[]
Background[]
Not much is known about him besides that he is a member of the Ballas and lives in a blue house on Grove Street in Davis, Los Santos. He grew to have a poor reputation among members of The Families.
Events of Grand Theft Auto V[]
In 2013, Families member Stretch sets up his fellow gang member, Lamar Davis, by telling him to buy drugs from the dealer in Grove Street. Without suspicion, Lamar comes to his friend, Franklin Clinton's house to persuade him to do the deal together, which incidentally ends up having Trevor Philips taking part as well, when he shows up and decides to join them, much to Lamar's annoyance.
The trio, along with Lamar's dog Chop, come to the dealer's house and, upon Lamar showing him the money, the dealer presents the three men with a white block wrapped in plastic. He cuts it open and lets Lamar smell the knife he used. Lamar, extremely eager, is ready to hand over the cash for it, but Trevor is skeptical. He asks if they can take a sample from the other side of the brick, but the dealer refuses to do so and tells them to leave. As Trevor grows frustrated, he snatches the block from out of the dealer's hands, and snaps it in half, proving his skepticism to be correct after all and that it was just drywall filler with only a small bag of actual drugs inside it.
The dealer reacts by calling the aid of his fellow gang members and immediately shuts the door, making Trevor, Franklin and Lamar fight their way out of Grove Street.

Appearance[]
The drug dealer looks similar to the other Ballas in terms of facial features. Despite his association with the gang, he doesn't wear purple. He wears a grey open hoodie, with a blue Guadalupe t-shirt underneath, which is similar to the ones worn by the Marabunta Grande. He also wears light blue shorts with white sneakers.

Trivia[]
- His house is in the same vicinity that the Johnson House existed in the 3D Universe counterpart of Grove Street in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, although the house bears little resemblance.
