IRVING -- The Irving boy handcuffed for taking a homemade clock to school is making a special trip to the White House on Monday.
Ahmed Mohamed, 14, will meet with President Obama. The president was hoping to see the invention that sparked a huge conversation nationwide, but it's still with Irving police.
Mohamed is scheduled to enjoy a night of science and stargazing on the South Lawn. The president personally invited him out for Astronomy Night.
The high school freshman, who has since withdrawn from the Irving Independent School District following his arrest, arrived in Washington, D.C. over the weekend.
He was honored Sunday night by the largest Muslim Civil Rights Group in the country, receiving the "American Muslim of the Year Award."

Clock? I thought it looked like a bomb or a timer for one.
Just sayin.
