Las Cruces Man, 37, Booked on Aggravated Dwi Charge

Allegedly... Frank Edward Abeyta, a 37-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Aug. 24, 2026. Recorded under booking number 2600006799, he faces a misdemeanor charge of aggravated D.W.I. following an arrest at 1691 Hickory Loop. Records currently indicate a no-bond hold for this case. In New Mexico, an aggravated D.W.I. charge typically involves an alleged blood alcohol content of .16 or higher, or a refusal to submit to chemical testing at the time of the stop. The arrest location on Hickory Loop falls within the jurisdiction of local municipal or county law enforcement depending on the specific block. A no-bond status often signifies that the individual is awaiting a first appearance before a magistrate or judge to determine release conditions. The charges are allegations, and Abeyta is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
