Las Cruces Man, 37, Faces Felony Assault on Officer Counts After Holsome Road Call

Allegedly... Joshua A. Heath, 37, of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center early on Feb. 2, 2026, under booking number 2600000806, jail records show. The booking lists two felony counts of aggravated assault on a peace officer, a misdemeanor count of violating a domestic violence order, and a misdemeanor count of resisting or obstructing an officer, each stemming from an arrest at 5065 Holsome Road in Las Cruces. A separate felony entry for a probation violation was processed at the detention center itself. Bonds totaling $3,000 were set across the individual Holsome Road counts, according to the jail record, while the probation violation was logged with no bond. Available open sources did not turn up a law enforcement release or news report tied to this specific incident at the time of publication. The case appears likely to be handled in the Third Judicial District Court in Doña Ana County, which has jurisdiction over felony matters in Las Cruces. Court filings, if any, were not yet publicly available as of the booking date. All charges described here are allegations; the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
