Police, separating the two groups, saw twenty-nine of their own go down to injuries sustained in the violence.
Over one hundred people were arrested, including a twenty-five year old Muslim, who is accused of stabbing two of the officers.
The protesters had been decrying the recent handing out of Koran's, translated into German, in their neighborhoods.
North Rhine-Westphalia Interior Minister Ralf Jaeger said he would lead a search to identify all Salafists who wanted to cause violence. He and other authorities hope that such a move would help identify trouble before it happens.
