ARG00007fk - disturbed spiral with odd, extended, radio emission

by JeanTate
SDSS J145827.37+580737.2, at z_sp 0.285, is an unusual-looking galaxy, possibly a disturbed big-bulge/small disk one (it's certainly very big!):
Is it the host of the radio emission (I think so)? And what sort of radio emission/morphology is it anyway (I have no idea)?

Is there radio emission further out? Probably not (or did I simply didn't zoom out far enough):
