Las Cruces Man, 33, Booked on Aggravated Assault and Weapons Charges

Allegedly... Jacob E. Avillar-franzoy, a 33-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Aug. 14, 2026. He faces a felony charge of aggravated assault and a petty misdemeanor charge for carrying deadly weapons. Records indicate he was taken into custody at 2906 Quasar Drive and is currently being held without bond under booking number 2600006504. In New Mexico, an aggravated assault charge generally involves a threat or action with a deadly weapon that causes a person to fear immediate bodily harm. The arrest location on Quasar Drive falls within the jurisdiction of local Las Cruces law enforcement. A no-bond hold signifies that the individual is being detained until a formal hearing determines the conditions of their release. The charges are allegations, and Avillar-franzoy is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
