In GTA 4, you could encounter random people, who would give you small side missions along side the main story line. You would encounter these people throughout the game.
You could spot these on the mini-map radar looking like a small man. These missions where are nice break to the main story line, and often had small hints to the main story.
Are there any of these in GTA 5?
And if so, where can they be found?
(in GTA 4 they where usually at fixed locations)

In GTA 5 there are two different kinds of "encounters". The first one are labeled "Strangers/Freaks" missions and they are depicted on the map with a ? mark. They are in fixed position and every character has its own missions.
There are also random events that triggers randomly while roaming around. These are label by a blue dot.
