Las Cruces Man, 27, Booked on Battery Against a Household Member Charge

Allegedly... Ramon Lara, 27, of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Sept. 8, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody on Doña Ana Road and assigned booking number 2600007152. He faces a misdemeanor charge of battery against a household member and is currently being held without bond. In New Mexico, a charge of battery against a household member involves the alleged intentional touching or striking of a family or household member in a rude, insolent, or angry manner. The arrest location on Doña Ana Road falls within the jurisdiction of local county law enforcement, and the no-bond status indicates he is being held pending a preliminary court appearance. The charges are allegations, and Lara is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
