Albuquerque –
On November 12th, 2026, an Albuquerque Police Officer was rear-ended by 39-year-old Travis Brown of Albuquerque, that eventually led to aggravated DWI charges.
According to the criminal complaint, Brown was driving his Honda Accord eastbound on Zuni RD SE and the marked APD police unit was traveling southbound on San Pedro Rd. The officer crossed the intersection and noticed Brown was not going to stop, and Brown collided into the rear of the police vehicle.
The APD vehicle and Accord appeared to be totaled with air bag deployments. In a budget crunch, an APD police unit getting totaled will have City of Albuquerque scrambling to find funds for vehicles.
The complaint says the arresting officer observed Brown’s eyes water and his speech was slurred. He was arrested for DWI and taken to the Prisoner Transport Center. Brown performed three breath tests that were above .16.
Brown was booked on aggravated DWI charges.
