A 25-year-old medical student who allegedly mowed down four men in south Delhi early Monday was arrested from Delhi airport while trying to leave the country, police said Tuesday.

Four labourers were killed and four sustained serious injuries when the Honda City car, driven by Khan, ran over them near the Safdarjung flyover early Monday. The men were working with the Central Public Works Department (CPWD) on a road improvement project.
