Bucky Sligo (Irish: Bucky Sligeach) is a minor character in the Grand Theft Auto series who appears as a minor character in Grand Theft Auto IV.

History

Background

He was an Irish-American character who was linked to criminals in Alderney, Dukes and Ireland. He was an associate of Derrick McReary and Aiden O'Malley.

Sligo was suspected in a string of robberies for which O'Malley was convicted, yet the charges did not stick. Afterward, Sligo often spoke of Derrick McReary as a rat and threatened to kill his family, driving Derrick deeper into heroin use and depression (possibly because Sligo's claims were true).

Events of Grand Theft Auto IV

A down-and-out McReary sent Niko Bellic to kill Sligo. Bellic tracked him down to a Burger Shot restaurant in Westdyke, Alderney. Sligo escaped in his car, retreating to the house where he was holed up with several armed accomplices. A shootout ensued, and Niko killed Sligo and his accomplices.

Trivia

• Bucky's gang members are exactly the same model as Irish Mob affiliates.

• Sligo is a town and county and in northwestern Ireland and is twinned with Tallahassee in Florida, which refers to his Irish-American history.

• A worn Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas advert for Burger Shot's "Double Barreled" can be seen within his house.
