Las Cruces Man, 38, Booked on Felony Motor Vehicle Theft and Resisting Charges

Allegedly... Jason Garcia, 38, of Las Cruces, was taken into custody on Aug. 7, 2026, and is currently held at the Doña Ana County Detention Center. Records show he was booked under identification number 2600006265 on suspicion of unlawful taking of a motor vehicle and resisting or obstructing an officer. Both charges stem from an incident at 106 Camino de Nosotros, where no bond has been set at this time. In New Mexico, the unlawful taking of a motor vehicle is classified as a felony involving the unauthorized possession or control of another person's vehicle. The secondary charge of resisting or obstructing typically involves allegations of interfering with a law enforcement officer's lawful duties during an investigation or arrest. The arrest location on Camino de Nosotros falls within the jurisdiction of Doña Ana County authorities. The charges are allegations, and Jason Garcia is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
