Las Cruces Man, 42, Booked on Multiple Failure to Appear Charges

Allegedly... Pedro Alcantar, 42, of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Aug. 27, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody at 2223 Missouri Ave under booking number 2600006863. He faces two misdemeanor counts of failure to appear, with bond status listed as not applicable for one count and zero for the second. A failure to appear charge generally stems from a defendant not attending a scheduled court proceeding or hearing as required by a judge. The arrest location on Missouri Avenue falls within the jurisdiction of the Las Cruces Police Department and the Doña Ana County court system. This type of booking typically involves a bench warrant issued by the court to ensure the individual’s presence for future legal matters. The charges are allegations, and Alcantar is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
