The “preventative raid” targeted workers at a vegetable warehouse, which was attacked by demonstrators on Sunday, Russian news agencies reported.
Angry protesters overran the market searching for migrant workers.
The rioting began during a protest over the killing of an ethnic Russian man on Thursday, allegedly by a Muslim migrant from the North Caucasus.
Ethnic Russian Yegor Shcherbakov, 25, was killed in front of his girlfriend in the capital’s Biryulyovo district.
Police have released a security camera photo of the suspect, but have not identified him.Media said the image suggested the man was of “non-Slavic appearance”, leading nationalists to conclude the killer was a Muslim migrant from the Russian North Caucasus.
