If he'd brought in a bomb-looking device... orrrr if he hadn't built a working clock that he wanted to show off in the first place.
Ask him!
They claim they thought it was a "hoax bomb". Why? Was he not sitting there, going, "Hey no it's a clock. See? It tells time. I made it."?
That means they sat in a room with the device, knowing it was not an explosive, and refused to believe him that he had built a clock, himself. They sat there with him in the room and called the police on him because they just couldn't believe a little brown Muslim had done something smarter than their own capacities.

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
