Hundreds of armed police searched a refugee center in the city of Ellwangen on the morning of May 3 and arrested a man whose asylum application had been rejected.
Police searched for weapons and collected evidence from 27 people suspected of resisting police in the incident on April 30.
On April 30, four police officers arrived at the center to arrest a Togolese refugee and send him back to Italy, his first port of call in Europe.
However, the police were forced to retreat after about 150 migrants, mostly Africans in the centre, surrounded two police vehicles and threatened them until the officers gave them the keys to release the Togolese refugees' handcuffs.
According to the deputy commander of the regional police force, Bernhard Weber, this incident is "unprecedented" since the wave of more than 1 million migrants seeking asylum in the country since 2015./.
