The Ukrainian native, who allegedly participated in World War I genocide, had been sought because he skipped a July 12 deportation hearing. Demjanjuk was ordered stripped of his citizenship last year, and the Justice Department recently began at1 tempts to deport him. Demjanjuk was arrested about 8:30 a.m.

at the Old Federal Building where he was waiting for his lawyer, John W. Martin. They had planned to ask U.S. District Judge Frank J. Battisti to block Demjanjuk's arrest.

Before they could meet with Battisti, Demjanjuk was detained by U.S. marshals. He was then arrested by INS officers. A.D. Moyer, INS district director, initially set $10,000 bond for Demjanjuk, a move to ensure his appearance at future hearings.

A In a flurry of meetings that followed Demjanjuk's arrest, Martin attempted to have the bondrequirement canceled. He argued that the deportation proceedings against Demjanjuk were illegal because his case might get U.S. Supreme Court review. U.S. Immigration Judge Adolph F.

Police said yesterday some witnesses may know the driver's identity but won't tell. Three of the four people killed were brothers of a convicted murderer and rapist, but homicide Lt. Jack Summey said police were not sure whether that had any bearing on the incident.

"There's a possibility (that the witnesses know who the driver is but aren't telling) but we wouldn't say that's a fact," Summey said. "I'm really not worrying about it at this point. We feel like we'll get rid of this (case) pretty quickly." Witnesses said the incident about 2 a.m. Saturday started when a blue-and-white pickup truck rammed into a car and crowd of people outside a lounge, then circled back and raced into the screaming crowd again. Summey said the attack probably stemmed from an earlier argument at the lounge.
