Police spokesman Sgt. Brian Dye says the graffiti appeared on buildings, bridges, fences and other surfaces.
Dye says it did not include gang messages but instead the tags were more artistic.
The markings have all been cleaned up or painted over.
Court records do not show charges filed against Gibson and he has no listed attorney.
Gibson did not have a publicly listed phone number where someone could be reached to comment on his behalf.
