HE LEFT his "tags" on more than 200 trains and hoardings across our transport network.

But from today, Robert Lee is behind bars. Operating under the tag "Ribs", 23-year-old Lee left his mark on buildings and carriages at stations across South London - causing £250,000 of damage in four years.

He was jailed for three-and-a-half years at Middlesex Guildhall Crown Court on Friday. Lee, of Fitzallyen Street, Kennington, was also handed a five-year Asbo [anti social behavior order] barring him from train depots and Underground stations.

He was also banned from carrying felt-tips and spray cans
