After the hostage-taking in the prison in Burg in Saxony-Anhalt, investigations into the background are underway.
Traces would be secured on the way that the hostage-taker took with the prison staff on Monday evening, said a spokesman for the State Criminal Police Office on Tuesday in Magdeburg.
In addition, it must be determined which means of crime the 30-year-old used and how he got it.
Burg - video material is evaluated.
LKA special forces were deployed in Burg.
There, the right-wing extremist Halle assassin Stephan Balliet temporarily seized control of two employees.
The 30-year-old was overpowered by other correctional officers inside the prison, the Justice Department said.
The act lasted less than an hour.
