El Paso Man, 23, Booked in Doña Ana County on Household Battery Charge

Allegedly... Jonathan Antonio Ayala, a 23-year-old resident of El Paso, Texas, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Oct. 5, 2026. He faces a misdemeanor charge of battery against a household member following an arrest at 1138 Nickle Hill. According to booking records, he is currently being held without bond under booking number 2600007997. In New Mexico, a charge of battery against a household member involves the alleged application of force in a rude, insolent, or angry manner toward a family or household member. The arrest location on Nickle Hill falls within the jurisdiction of Doña Ana County authorities. A no-bond hold typically indicates that the individual must remain in custody until a preliminary hearing or a conditions-of-release assessment by a judge. The charges are allegations, and Ayala is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
