Las Cruces Man, 34, Booked on Failure to Appear Charge in Las Alturas

Allegedly... Andrew Joseph King, a 34-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Aug. 10, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody at 3940 Desert Broom Court in the Las Alturas area under booking number 2600006352. He faces a misdemeanor charge of failure to appear and is currently being held without bond. A failure to appear charge generally stems from a defendant not attending a scheduled court proceeding or hearing as required by a prior judicial order. The arrest location in the Las Alturas neighborhood falls within the jurisdiction of Doña Ana County authorities, who processed the booking following the contact at the residential address. The charges are allegations, and King is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
