Las Cruces Man, 43, Booked on Aggravated Dwi and Probation Violation Charges

Allegedly... Angel Lopez, a 43-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on July 19, 2026. Under booking number 2600005718, Lopez was processed on multiple misdemeanor charges including aggravated DWI, driving with a suspended license, and driving under the influence of liquor or drugs. He also faces a felony charge for a probation violation. Records indicate the arrest took place at 220 Cottonwood St. in Las Cruces, and he is currently being held without bond. An aggravated DWI charge in New Mexico typically involves a blood alcohol content of .16 or higher, or a refusal to submit to chemical testing following an arrest. The inclusion of a felony probation violation often results in a no-bond hold, as the court must determine if the new allegations constitute a breach of previous sentencing conditions. These charges are handled within the jurisdiction of Doña Ana County. The charges are allegations, and Angel Lopez is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
