Santa Teresa Man, 60, Booked on Misdemeanor Warrant at Pete Domenici Crossing

Allegedly... Jorge Chaidez Chacon, 60, was taken into custody on Oct. 9, 2026, and booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center. He was processed under booking number 2600008099 after being apprehended at 170 Pete Domenici in Santa Teresa. Records indicate he is currently held on a misdemeanor warrant issued by a jurisdiction outside of Las Cruces but within New Mexico, with no bond amount currently listed. An outside warrant signifies that a judicial officer from a different New Mexico municipality or county has requested the individual's detention. The arrest location at the Santa Teresa Port of Entry suggests the warrant was served during a routine processing at the international border crossing. This type of hold typically remains in effect until the originating jurisdiction coordinates a transfer or the subject appears before a magistrate to address the underlying matter. The charges are allegations, and Jorge Chaidez Chacon is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
