A pub landlord has been convicted of drink driving.

Joshua Gibson, landlord of the Sussex Arms in East Grinstead, was stopped at about 2am on 20 December after officers saw him driving his BMW 325i too fast in Little King Street, East Grinstead, where there were a number of people walking in the road.

When the officers began speaking to the 22-year-old they suspected he had been drinking. Gibson then failed a breath test.

Gibson, of West Street, East Grinstead, pleaded guilty to drink-driving when he appeared at Horsham Magistrates' Court on 27 April.

He was banned from driving for 16 months, fined £120 and ordered to pay £85 costs and a £20 victim surcharge.

Josh Gibson was only 20 years old when he took over the running of The Sussex Arms in West Street in 2014.
