Las Cruces Man, 43, Booked on Three Counts of Aggravated Assault on Peace Officer

Allegedly... Francisco Antillon, 43, of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 25, 2026. Antillon is held under booking number 2600005128 on three felony counts of aggravated assault upon a peace officer. The arrest occurred at 148 Buckhorn Avenue, and records indicate he is currently being held without bond. Under New Mexico law, this specific felony charge involves an unlawful assault or threat against a law enforcement officer while they are performing their official duties. The multiple counts filed in this instance suggest separate alleged interactions or threats involving different officers during the encounter at the Buckhorn Avenue location. The charges are allegations, and Antillon is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
