La Mesa Man, 48, Booked on Multiple Traffic Charges Including Suspended License

Allegedly... Henry Morones, a 48-year-old resident of La Mesa, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Aug. 5, 2026. Records indicate he was processed under booking number 2600006218 on several misdemeanor traffic counts. The arrest occurred on Chimuri Street, approximately 115 feet east of South New Mexico Highway, and he is currently being held with no bond listed. The charges against Morones include driving with a suspended license, operating a vehicle without insurance, and having no registration or an expired plate. He was also cited for a seat belt violation during the stop. These charges fall under New Mexico motor vehicle statutes, which regulate the documentation and safety requirements for drivers on public roadways. The charges are allegations, and Morones is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
