Vado Man, 59, Booked on Charges of Driving with a Suspended License

Allegedly... Michael Duran Franco, 59, of Vado, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 15, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody near the intersection of Highliner Road and Ollin Lane under booking number 2600004906. He faces misdemeanor charges of driving while his license was suspended and operating a vehicle with no registration or an expired plate. According to the detention center records, Franco was held without a set bond at the time of processing. The charges relate to a traffic stop in the Vado area, and the documentation indicates both counts are classified as misdemeanors. In New Mexico, a no-bond status at intake is often a temporary designation until a defendant makes an initial appearance before a magistrate or judge. The charges are allegations, and Franco is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
