Las Cruces Man, 26, Booked on Battery of a Peace Officer and Domestic Charges

Allegedly... Miguel Antonio Navarrete, a 26-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Sept. 22, 2026. He faces a felony charge of battery on a peace officer alongside several misdemeanor counts including battery against a household member, resisting or obstructing, and criminal damage to property. The booking record, numbered 2600007630, indicates he is currently held without bond following an arrest at 8979 Arroyo Road. The charges involve allegations of physical contact against both a household member and law enforcement personnel, as well as property damage valued under $1,000. Because the defendant is held on a no-bond status, he will remain in custody at the county facility pending a preliminary hearing or a conditions-of-release motion in court. The arrest location on Arroyo Road falls under the jurisdiction of local Las Cruces authorities. The charges are allegations, and Navarrete is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
