Las Cruces Man, 35, Booked on Felony Failure to Appear Charge

Allegedly... Anthony Prugh, a 35-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on July 1, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody at the Adult Probation Office under booking number 2600005257. He faces a felony charge of failure to appear and is currently held on a $20,000 bond. A failure to appear charge generally involves a defendant not attending a scheduled court proceeding as required by law. The arrest at a probation office indicates the individual was within the jurisdiction of the New Mexico Department of Corrections or local court services at the time of detention. The charges are allegations, and Prugh is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
