The 37-year-old man is said to have been removed from a supermarket in Germersheim on Saturday evening for refusing to put on mouth-nose protection.
He subsequently refused to give the officers his personal details, and when a search was carried out, the man resisted aggressively.
Several uninvolved passers-by are reported to have shown solidarity with the accused and the officers thought it better to continue at the station.
It is there that the situation escalated further when the the man also resisted taking blood and a taser was therefore brandished and used.
The 37-year-old also destroyed the glass panes of the custody cell.
The accused is being investigated for resisting police officers and for causing property damage.
