Las Cruces Man, 48, Booked on Felony Failure to Appear Charge

Allegedly... Edward Tome, 48, of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Oct. 10, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody near the intersection of University and Jordan and assigned booking number 2600008135. He faces a felony charge of failure to appear and is currently held on a $20,000 bond. A failure to appear charge generally stems from a defendant missing a scheduled court proceeding or failing to comply with a judicial order. The arrest location indicates the matter falls under the jurisdiction of local law enforcement operating within the university district of Las Cruces. The charges are allegations, and Tome is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
