Commissioner "Clancy" Wiggum, also known as Chief Wiggum or simply Wiggum is a non-playable character in the game The Simpsons: Hit & Run. He is the chief of the Springfield Police Department (hence the name) and is heavily involved in the plot of the game.

Roles & Appearances[]

Because of the game's heavy focus on crime and hit-and-run, Chief Wiggum is often encountered by the protagonist in almost every level of the game. He chases down Bart, Marge and Apu, finds three strikes on Snake with Lisa, gives Lisa and Marge info about Bart and the crop circles, is followed by Apu to receive information about the Cola Trucks, and is carjacked by Bart. He can also be heard in Level 1 if the player presses the doorbell of Lard Lad Donuts and also makes an appearance in Level 7 as a pedestrian character at the Wiggum house. The following list contains all of Chief Wiggum's appearances in missions, whether essential to the plot or not.

  • Wiggum will answer whenever Homer rings the doorbell at Lard Lad's.

  • Slithery Sleuthing (Boss) - Lisa asks Chief Wiggum if he can help find Bart, but Wiggum is too busy collecting evidence on Snake. Lisa gets in disguise and tags along with Wiggum to chase after Snake and collect three pieces of evidence that he leaves behind. Afterwards, Wiggum tells Lisa that Bart may be at the Squidport on a cruise.

Level 4[]

  • For A Few Donuts More (Boss) - Marge asks Chief Wiggum if he knows anything about the crop circle and what happened to Bart. But Wiggum is in need of donuts, as the donut store had been closed.

Level 5[]

  • This Little Piggy - Apu asks Krusty if he can give him information on the Buzz Cola. Krusty suggests Apu should go follow a cop and dress more America-like. Apu does so and follows a trail of donuts that lead to the police station. From there, he follows Chief Wiggum who leads him to the DMV.
  • Kwik Cash - After destroying an Armored Truck, Snake and Apu attempt to return to Snake's hideout, but first they must avoid Chief Wiggum. They do so and escape to the hideout.

Level 6[]

  • Milking the Pigs - Snake wants Bart to complete some loose ends for him: One of these include destroying Chief Wiggum's Police Car, which Bart goes out and does so.

In level 1, Chief Wiggum will drive the Police Car when it is summoned from the Phone Booths, despite the Police Car not being a starting vehicle or bonus mission vehicle. Chief Wiggum shares this unusual trait with Otto Mann.

Trivia[]

  • Homer is the only playable character in the game who never encounters Chief Wiggum in any mission, as Wiggum does not make an appearance in any of the missions that Homer is playable in (Level 1 and 7).
  • An image of Chief Wiggum appears on a sign near the Observatory in Levels 3 and 6 with animatronic eyes that move from side to side and a right arm that moves up and down, along with the captions "We're Watching You Kids. Cops Never Sleep". This sign is from the Season 10 episode Wild Barts Can't Be Broken.
  • Two PR asset discs, which were found in 2016, reveal that there was originally a lose-the-tail segment in Level 1's Mission 2 "Petty Theft Homer", meaning that Homer would have to avoid Chief Wiggum while collecting Flanders' lost stuff or when he takes the stuff back to his house. It is unknown why the segment went unused and led to Wiggum became universally occupied the Police Car’s driver seat in Level 1 section, but it was possibly removed so it wouldn't seem difficult for new players.
