Las Cruces Man, 56, Booked for Driving While License Suspended

Allegedly... Bobby Ray Alvarez, a 56-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Sept. 14, 2026. He faces a misdemeanor charge of driving while his license was suspended. The booking, assigned number 2600007420, followed an arrest at the intersection of Highway 70 and Bataan Memorial. Records indicate that he was held without bond at the time of processing. A charge of driving with a suspended license in New Mexico typically involves operating a motor vehicle after driving privileges have been revoked or withdrawn by the Motor Vehicle Division. The arrest location on Highway 70 is a major thoroughfare in Doña Ana County, falling under local and state traffic enforcement jurisdictions. The charges are allegations, and Alvarez is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
