Police say Ismail Hosni attacked the officers on Thursday night after they asked to see his identity papers. None of the three suffered life-threatening injuries.
Video footage released by police showed the injured officers tackling the suspect and pushing him to the ground before other security forces intervened.
Police say the 20-year-old, who faces possible attempted murder charges, has dual Italian and Tunisian nationality and was born in Milan.
Anti-terrorism police are now looking into whether he has links with militant groups.
