Las Cruces Man, 42, Booked on Armed Robbery Charge at City Intersection

Allegedly... Tony Edwards, a 42-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Sept. 18, 2026. Records indicate he was arrested near the intersection of Parker and Second Street in Las Cruces and assigned booking number 2600007502. He faces a felony charge of armed robbery and is currently being held without bond. In New Mexico, armed robbery is classified as a high-level felony involving the alleged use or threatened use of a weapon during the commission of a theft. The arrest location at Parker and Second Street falls within the jurisdiction of local municipal law enforcement. Because no bond was set at the time of booking, Edwards remains in custody pending further court proceedings. The charges are allegations, and Tony Edwards is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
