Leighton Finn-Gibbs Banged Up Again for Drug Supply

Leighton Finn-Gibbs, 20, from Selkirk Close, Middlesbrough, has been jailed for 18 months after cops caught him with crack cocaine and cannabis. This is his second spell behind bars for drug offences.

Police Raid Uncovers Drug Network

On December 30, 2025, Middlesbrough Proactive Team swooped on a Wellesley Road property. Several people were inside. A woman at the scene was found with a mobile phone directly linking Finn-Gibbs to drug dealing. Messages revealed attempts to recruit others to peddle class A drugs, confirming his key role in the supply chain.

Criminal Past and Police Crackdown

Finn-Gibbs is no stranger to trouble. He’d already done time for class A drug supply and dangerous driving after smashing into a police car. Middlesbrough Proactive Team Sergeant John Sproson said:

“Leighton Finn-Gibbs has again been found to be involved in drugs supply across Middlesbrough. We continue to tackle those pushing drugs on our streets and will keep putting offenders before the courts to protect the community.”
