PHOENIX — Police identified Thursday an Arizona State University student who fell to his death over the weekend from a high-rise apartment balcony in Tempe.

The Tempe Police Department said 24-year-old Maxwell Chamberlain fell from the West Sixth apartment complex near Fifth Street and Ash Avenue about 3 a.m. Saturday.

Police do not suspect foul play.

“At this time, we don’t believe the fall was suspicious but rather an unfortunate accidental fall where impairment may have been a factor,” police spokeswoman Lily Duran said.

Tempe Police detective Gabe Gomez said Chamberlain’s body was found near the pool area on the seventh floor.

“[He] appeared to have fallen from the 15th or above floor,” Gomez said
