Republican Official Arrested in Fatal Hit-Run

A Las Cruces Republican official, Kimberly Skaggs, 54, was arrested for fatally hitting a cyclist and fleeing the scene in a black Cadillac Escalade. Investigators tracked the vehicle to her home, where blood and damage were found. This arrest marks her second major traffic-related legal trouble — previously cited for street racing and charged with speeding 88 mph in a 55 mph zone in a Lamborghini. Skaggs, who held key GOP roles including state treasurer and county chair, was removed from the party’s website after her arrest, amid ongoing internal party turmoil.
