A shocking video shows the moment a black Oregon State University student was violently arrested by two white police officers for allegedly riding her bicycle on the wrong side of the road.

Genesis Hansen, 21, was stopped by Oregon State Police trooper Kelly Katsikis on October 13 as she was traveling down Northwest 16th Street in Corvallis.

Katsikis stopped Hansen because she was reportedly riding her bike the wrong way. He asked her for her identification and tried to issue her a citation.

Police recently released the body cam footage from the arrest that shows Hansen being arrested on the ground after Katsikis and Corvallis Police Officer Donald Sheldon claimed she wasn't cooperating.

In the 38-minute video, Hansen is heard asking the trooper questions after he demanded to see her identification.

The discussion continued for several minutes until Katsikis said: 'I need you to either give me your identification now or you are going to be under arrest. Do you understand that?'

Hansen responded: 'I don’t answer questions.'

The officers then tried to place her arms behind her back and Hansen stepped backward and fell to the ground. Both officers are then seen holding Hansen down as they place handcuffs around her wrists.

There were several witnesses nearby and one woman yelled: 'She’s a young woman, you do not need to be on top of her. She is not resisting. You are so much bigger than her. This type of force is not necessary.'

The officers eventually helped Hansen to her feet and escorted her to a police car.

She was arrested on charges of interfering with an officer and resisting arrest.

Following the incident, Oregon State University released a statement that reads: 'We remain concerned about what was portrayed occurring in the video. And we have asked that law enforcement policies and practices by Oregon State Police — and other local law enforcement agencies — be examined for evidence of implicit and explicit bias.'

The university said it has also offered support services to Hansen.

Hansen's arrest has prompted outcry from local advocates, including the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), who have demanded that the charges against her be dropped.

In a statement, the NAACP Alaska Oregon Washington State-Area Conference said: 'As the nation’s oldest civil rights organization, we view this civil rights violation by state and local law enforcement as another example of racial inequity and excessive use of force imposed on communities of color by law enforcement.'

The group also listed their demands that the Benton County district attorney drop all charges against Hansen and that the Oregon State Police and Corvallis Police Department should formally apologize to Hansen and the community.

Oregon State Police also released a statement to KLCC: 'As an agency that is committed to eliminating racial profiling and implicit bias in policing, these allegations are being meticulously reviewed and we are compiling as much information as possible.

'The agency understands the importance of vigorously investigating these allegations and is taking a serious look at the incident.'
