Las Cruces Man, 18, Booked on Suspicion of Driving Under the Influence

Allegedly... Jesus Martinez, an 18-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Sept. 10, 2026. Martinez was processed under booking number 2600007244 on a misdemeanor charge of driving under the influence. According to jail records, he was taken into custody near the intersection of Oasis Drive and Solano Drive and is currently being held without bond. A driving under the influence charge in New Mexico generally involves the allegation that an individual was operating a motor vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs. The arrest location at a city intersection indicates the stop occurred within the local jurisdiction of Las Cruces. A no-bond hold typically means the individual must remain in custody until a preliminary appearance before a magistrate or judge. The charges are allegations, and Martinez is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
