This is a very risky crime for these thugs to commit in broad daylight. There is more to it I think. I am not saying your friend did anything at all. There is a reason they targeted him though.

He's Asian and pretty well off, but not rich. It's my understanding the many small business owning immigrants keep larger amounts of cash at home. Maybe they thought he fit this profile as apposed to an engineer with 40 years experience that he is. The neighborhoods around here are predominantly white NASA and industrial engineers and managers. There are a few minorities, but most also fit the engineer and manager profile, i.e. not very many recent immigrants and small business owners.
What really gets me is the broad daylight thing. I'm trying to be politically correct here, but it's getting more difficult. I have nothing against any minority and there are many (just not a lot) hard working and successful minorities in Clear Lake, but there sure seems like there's more and more crimes committed by blacks than there was before Katrina.
