Las Cruces Man, 28, Booked at Doña Ana County on Court Commitment

Allegedly... Nicholas Day, 28, of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 4, 2026. Records indicate he was transferred from the Luna County Detention Center and is currently held without bond under booking number 2600004462. The primary charge listed for this booking is a felony court commitment. According to news and court records, Day is accused of stealing a flatbed truck in Deming, leading to charges of unlawful taking of a motor vehicle and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Reports from the Albuquerque Journal and the Sixth Judicial District Attorney indicate that Day was already on pretrial release for a separate felony vehicle theft matter in Doña Ana County at the time of these new allegations. Prosecutors further cited a charge of conspiracy to commit perjury in connection with the ongoing legal proceedings. The charges are allegations, and Day is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
