Texas police officer to Ahmed Mohamed: “Yup. That’s who I thought it was.” 

When 14-year-old Ahmed Mohamed, a high school student in Irving, Texas, was pulled out of class Monday for making a clock and into a room where four police officers were waiting, this is how one of the officers responded to his appearance: “Yup. That’s who I thought it was.” The officer reportedly said this after taking one look at Mohamed. He and Mohamed had never met before.
