Irving's police chief announced Wednesday that charges won't be filed against Ahmed Mohamed, the MacArthur High School freshman arrested Monday after he brought what school officials and police described as a "hoax bomb" on campus.
At a joint press conference with Irving ISD, Chief Larry Boyd said the device - confiscated by an English teacher despite the teen's insistence that it was a clock - was "certainly suspicious in nature."
