Las Cruces Man, 59, Booked on Charges of Driving While License Suspended and Speeding

Allegedly... Paul Astorga, a 59-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Oct. 7, 2026. He was processed under booking number 2600008056 on misdemeanor charges including driving with a suspended license and speeding. Records indicate the arrest occurred at 6 Spirit Winds, and no bond was immediately specified for the primary charge. In New Mexico, driving with a suspended or revoked license is classified as a misdemeanor that typically involves a court-ordered restriction on operating a motor vehicle. The arrest location at 6 Spirit Winds falls within the jurisdiction of Doña Ana County law enforcement. These types of traffic-related bookings generally require a court appearance to determine the status of driving privileges and any associated fines. The charges are allegations, and Paul Astorga is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
