El Paso Man, 24, Booked at Santa Teresa Border Crossing for Failure to Appear

Allegedly... Jose Manuel Saldana, a 24-year-old resident of El Paso, Texas, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Sept. 10, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody on Pete V. Domenici International Blvd at the Santa Teresa Port of Entry. He is currently being held under booking number 2600007247 on a misdemeanor charge of failure to appear. A failure to appear charge is typically issued by a court when a defendant does not attend a scheduled hearing or legal proceeding. The arrest at the international border crossing suggests the warrant was identified during a routine screening or contact with law enforcement at the port of entry. No bond information was listed in the initial booking record. The charges are allegations, and Jose Manuel Saldana is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
