Las Cruces Man, 24, Booked on Felony Failure to Appear Charge

Allegedly... Alejandro Manuel Garcia, a 24-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Sept. 15, 2026. Garcia faces a felony charge of failure to appear under booking number 2600007432. Records indicate he was taken into custody at the Annex in El Paso, Texas, and is currently held on a $2,500 bond. A felony failure to appear charge typically stems from a defendant missing a mandatory court proceeding related to an underlying felony case. The arrest at the Texas annex location suggests a jurisdictional transfer or apprehension outside of New Mexico. This classification indicates that a judicial officer previously issued a warrant for his arrest due to non-compliance with court schedules. The charges are allegations, and Garcia is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
