Las Cruces Man, 41, Booked at Doña Ana County Detention Center on Failure to Appear

Allegedly... John Daniel Lara, a 41-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Oct. 11, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody at 5591 Cecillia Place and assigned booking number 2600008154. He faces a misdemeanor charge of failure to appear and is currently being held without bond. A failure to appear charge generally stems from a defendant missing a scheduled court proceeding or failing to respond to a legal summons. The arrest location on Cecillia Place falls within the jurisdiction of local law enforcement in Doña Ana County, where the warrant was processed. The lack of a set bond typically indicates the individual must remain in custody until they can be brought before a judge to address the missed court date. The charges are allegations, and Lara is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
