Mesquite Man, 37, Booked on Aggravated Dwi and Traffic Charges

Allegedly... Raul Carrasco, a 37-year-old resident of Mesquite, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Oct. 15, 2026. He was processed under booking number 2600008269 following an arrest at the intersection of Highway 478 and Carnation Court. Carrasco faces misdemeanor charges including aggravated driving while under the influence, operating a vehicle without a driver's license, and improper lane usage. An aggravated DWI charge in New Mexico typically involves allegations of a high blood alcohol content or a refusal to submit to chemical testing during a traffic stop. The records indicate the arrest occurred within the jurisdiction of Doña Ana County, and no bond was immediately listed for the pending charges. The charges are allegations, and Carrasco is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
