Sunland Park Man, 52, Booked on Suspicion of Aggravated Dwi and Driving with Suspended License

Allegedly... Abel Diaz, a 52-year-old resident of Sunland Park, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 7, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody near the intersection of Nueces Drive and Sobre Drive in Sunland Park. Diaz faces misdemeanor charges of aggravated D.W.I. and driving while his license was suspended. He is currently being held without bond under booking number 2600004635. In New Mexico, an aggravated DWI charge is typically applied when a driver refuses a chemical test or meets specific blood-alcohol concentration thresholds. The no-bond status noted in the booking record indicates that the individual is being held in custody until a preliminary hearing or further court order. The arrest location suggests the encounter occurred within the municipal limits of Sunland Park under local law enforcement jurisdiction. The charges are allegations, and Diaz is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
