Asking for my best friend, are Brazillian's among the group targeted yesterday?

My friend is a citizen, but his brother is here on a student visa, does he have anything to worry about? Besides being frequently targeted for being pulled over?

I think his brother will be OK. However, he should pay attention to his visa requirements and not fail to follow them. In the future, who can say?
