TEMPE, AZ – Tempe police are investigating the death of Russell Maloney, 26, of Mesa, who was found on the top level of the Hayden Ferry Lakeside parking structure early Tuesday morning.

An image surfaced shortly thereafter which prompted police to search for a second man, Russell Perry, also 26, in connection with the death. The photo appears to depict Perry throwing Maloney off a roof overhang atop the parking garage.

Safely hidden behind a pylon, photographer Diana Rothery watched fearfully as the battle escalated, but through her fear managed to snap this photo.

"That man...he had a crazy look in his eyes – like a wild animal. A badger, or a boar-badger, or something equally ghastly," Rothery recounts.

Posthumous Notice: The events reported to have occurred in this blog post are "just for pretends." Russ Maloney is still very much alive, and Russ Perry is still very much a monstrous boar-badger, or something equally ghastly.
