Victor Pinedo, 39, of Las Cruces, Booked in Bernalillo After Alleged Chase

Allegedly... Victor Pinedo, 39, of Las Cruces, was booked into the Metropolitan Detention Center in Bernalillo County late on Feb. 11, 2026, jail records show. Booking paperwork lists felony charges of aggravated fleeing from an officer, receiving or transferring a stolen vehicle, and two court commitments with bonds totaling $30,000, along with misdemeanor counts of reckless driving, resisting or obstructing, and a penalty-misdemeanor count of leaving the scene. Jail records list the primary arrest location for the stolen-vehicle and fleeing counts as the 1200 block of La Posada, with the court-commitment entries tied to an address on Copper Loop in Las Cruces. No article-specific news coverage of this booking or the underlying incident was located in public sources at the time of publication. Further information may be available through Third Judicial District Court filings in Doña Ana County. Charges are allegations; Pinedo is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
