Mesquite Man, 40, Booked on Felony Failure to Appear Charge

Allegedly... Manuel Quinonez, a 40-year-old resident of Mesquite, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 10, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody near the intersection of Cinnabar Lane and Turquoise Avenue in Las Cruces under booking number 2600004770. He faces a felony charge for failure to appear, with a bond set at $5,000. A failure to appear charge is typically issued when an individual does not attend a scheduled court proceeding or comply with a judicial mandate. Because this specific charge is classified as a felony in the booking record, it suggests the underlying legal matter involves a felony-level offense. The arrest location at a street intersection indicates the contact occurred during a routine patrol or a targeted warrant service by local law enforcement. The charges are allegations, and Quinonez is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
