Useless Knowledge?

Here is a story that shows the overwhelming dominance of foreigners from the Dominican Republic in the heroin trafficking in Boston.  Knowing this, would it be racist for the police to put extra scrutiny on Domincans?  Is it racist for law enforcement to use this information because Dominicans are mostly Hispanic and/or black?  If President Trump instituted a travel ban from the Dominican Republic to cut the flow of heroin, would that be racist?  If the racism charge will be leveled by using this information, is there any point in collecting it?
