MIT, Facebook,Twitter, White House and Google Line Up are all Interested in Ahmed the Teenager that Produced a Clock

Ahmed Mohammed has received an outpouring of support after the incident at Texas’ MacArthur High School, which saw him handcuffed and taken to a juvenile detention centre.

The 14-year-old Muslim had brought in the clock after assembling it from a piece of circuit board and other objects he had found in his father’s garage.

A teacher at the school thought Ahmed had actually brought a bomb into the classroom and its principal notified police, who have not charged the boy.

But the unpleasant experience has not come without a silver lining.

 Tech giants MIT, Facebook, Twitter and Google are fighting over the teenager
