Las Cruces Man, 53, Booked in Doña Ana County on Felony Warrant

Allegedly... Jaime Olazaba, 53, of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on May 12, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody on the Interstate 25 northbound on-ramp under booking number 2600003817. He faces a felony charge related to an outstanding warrant from a jurisdiction outside Las Cruces but within New Mexico, with bond set at $7,500. According to news and law enforcement reports, Olazaba was previously identified by El Paso authorities as having active warrants for multiple felony bond violations. These reports show he was also arrested in late April 2026 in connection with a separate controlled-substance charge. The current booking follows his apprehension by local units on the highway ramp south of the city. The charges are allegations, and Olazaba is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
