Las Cruces Man, 49, Booked on Felony Failure to Appear Charges

Allegedly... Bryan Gene Patterson, a 49-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Sept. 15, 2026. He faces two felony counts of failure to appear following an arrest at 1905 Nevada Ave. Patterson is currently held under a combined bond of $10,000, according to jail records assigned to booking number 2600007430. In New Mexico, a felony failure to appear charge typically arises when an individual does not attend a mandatory court proceeding for an underlying felony case. The arrest location on Nevada Avenue indicates the jurisdiction where local law enforcement executed the warrants. These charges focus on the defendant's non-compliance with previous judicial orders rather than a new underlying criminal act. The charges are allegations, and Patterson is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
