Las Cruces Woman, 36, Booked on Charges of Non-Residential Burglary and Concealing Identity

Allegedly... Nichole Marlaina Chavez, a 36-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Aug. 4, 2026. Chavez was taken into custody at 1630 Hickory Loop and assigned booking number 2600006197. She faces a felony charge of non-residential burglary and a misdemeanor charge of concealing identity, with records indicating she is currently held without bond. A non-residential burglary charge in New Mexico typically involves the unauthorized entry of a structure other than a dwelling with the intent to commit a theft or felony therein. The arrest location on Hickory Loop identifies the jurisdiction for the proceedings. A no-bond hold signifies that the individual is being detained without a set financial requirement for release pending further court action. The charges are allegations, and Chavez is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
