Doña Ana Woman, 21, Booked on Battery and Assault Against a Household Member Charges

Allegedly... Angel Nevaeh Triste, a 21-year-old resident of Doña Ana, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Sept. 11, 2026. She faces charges of aggravated battery against a household member (no great bodily harm) and assault against a household member following an arrest at 670 Don Miguel in Las Cruces. Triste was assigned booking number 2600007316 and is currently held without bond. The charges involve allegations of physical contact or the threat thereof directed at a person with whom the defendant shares a domestic relationship. Aggravated battery in this context typically refers to an unlawful touching or striking with the intent to injure, while the assault charge involves an act that causes a reasonable apprehension of immediate bodily harm. Both counts are classified as misdemeanors under New Mexico statutes. The charges are allegations, and Triste is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
