US President Barack Obama has tweeted inviting the 14-year old Ahmed Mohamed to the White House for dinner.
Ahmed was reportedly arrested after his teacher mistook a clock he had built for an explosive device.
The pupil was handcuffed and reportedly interrogated by five police officers.
He claims to have repeatedly told teachers at MacArthur High in Texas and the police that the device was in fact a clock. It was taken away as evidence.
He has since been suspended from the school. However, police ruled he will not face any charges.
