(CNN) A black man dancing in the street of a Northern California city was pinned to the ground and placed under arrest by police after officers were called to the scene, newly-released officer bodycam video shows. The May 23 arrest occurred after police received a call from a woman who said "an African-American man is dancing in the street and clearly something is wrong with him." A series of bodycam videos released on Saturday shows police officers approach the man, identified as Mali Watkins, as he stood next to a sidewalk in a street. Police tell him he is resisting arrest. City of Alameda spokesperson Sarah Henry said Watkins, who is a city resident, was arrested and cited for resisting arrest.
