LAS CRUCES, N.M. — Las Cruces Police Department and members of the Doña Ana County Bomb Squad were alerted of what appears to be an explosive device that was taken in to custody Tuesday, Feb. 3, 2026 to the Savers Donation Center, 2340 N. Main St.
The Savers store was evacuated and members of the bomb squad will be removing the device shortly.
Police were alerted to the device shortly before noon, by employees who, apparently, located it among donated items.
Stores and businesses in the nearby area have been asked to shelter-in-place until the device is secured and removed.
No other information is available at this time.
This is not the first time something strange has happened at Savers here in Las Cruces. In April 2024 a pedestrian crashed into the store leaving one dead and 15 injured.
