Las Cruces Woman, 19, Booked on Multiple Counts of Battery on a Peace Officer

Allegedly... Alyssia Rose Urioste, a 19-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Sept. 12, 2026. Records indicate she faces three felony counts of battery on a peace officer and one misdemeanor count of resisting or obstructing an officer. The arrest took place at 1400 E. University Ave. in Las Cruces, and she is currently being held without bond under booking number 2600007324. In New Mexico, a felony charge of battery on a peace officer involves the unlawful touching or striking of an officer while they are performing their official duties. The arrest location on East University Avenue falls within a high-traffic district near the university campus, placing the incident within the jurisdiction of local municipal or campus law enforcement. A no-bond hold typically indicates that the individual will remain in custody until a formal hearing before a magistrate or district judge. The charges are allegations, and Urioste is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
