Sunland Park Man, 37, Booked on Felony Failure to Appear Charge

Allegedly... Jose A Salas, 37, of Sunland Park, was taken into custody on Sept. 22, 2026, and booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center. He faces a felony charge for failure to appear following an arrest at 1850 Copper Loop Ave. in Las Cruces. A bond of $20,000 has been set in connection with the booking, which is recorded under number 2600007625. A failure to appear charge generally indicates that an individual did not attend a scheduled court proceeding as required by a judge. Because this instance is classified as a felony, it typically stems from an underlying felony case rather than a misdemeanor citation. The arrest location on Copper Loop Ave. is a common site for administrative and law enforcement processing in the county. The charges are allegations, and Salas is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
