Las Cruces Man, 41, Booked on Felony Methamphetamine Possession Charge

Allegedly... Rene Mcpherson, a 41-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 29, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody at 2541 E. Lohman Ave. and assigned booking number 2600005218. He faces a felony charge of possession of methamphetamine along with a misdemeanor count for failure to appear, and he is currently being held without bond. The arrest location on East Lohman Avenue falls within the jurisdiction of local Las Cruces law enforcement. In New Mexico, a felony charge for possession of methamphetamine indicates the alleged discovery of a controlled substance, while a failure to appear charge typically stems from a previously scheduled court date that was not attended. A no-bond hold requires the individual to remain in custody until a preliminary hearing or further court order. The charges are allegations, and Mcpherson is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
