George Richard Lawley Gibbs, 2nd Baron Wraxall, DL (16 May 1928 – 19 July 2001), who used the forename Richard, was a British hereditary peer.
[1] In 1988, Lord Wraxall was kidnapped at his home Tyntesfield and locked in the boot of his BMW for almost seven hours.
Afterwards according to The Times, he said "Good grief, there's more room in the back than I ever thought".
[citation needed] The kidnappers had knocked him to the ground, one battering him on the head with a plank, and demanded the combination to his safe and his house keys, but the burglar alarm went off and, in a panic, the raiders bundled Lord Wraxall into the boot of his car and drove him to woods about two miles away, before making off with his wallet and credit cards.
[2] He died unmarried in July 2001, aged 73, and was succeeded by his younger brother, Sir Eustace Gibbs.
