Las Cruces Man, 28, Booked on Suspicion of Battery Against a Household Member

Allegedly... Lanny Arnold Big Horse, 28, of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 17, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody at 2250 Missouri Ave 5B and assigned booking number 2600004936. He faces a misdemeanor charge of battery against a household member and is currently being held without bond. The charge of battery against a household member is a classification used in New Mexico when an individual is accused of the intentional touching or application of force to a family or household member in a rude, insolent, or angry manner. The zero-dollar bond status indicates that the defendant is being held pending an initial appearance before a magistrate or judge, who will then determine the conditions of release. The charges are allegations, and Big Horse is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
