How Does a Student Visa Get Revoked

[protector]

Heard a story about some exchange students who got into an argument with a bartender who
threatened to call the cops and have their student visas revoked.
Can an exchange student get their students visa revoked if they get arrested in the US?

[Mr. Knowitall]

When you choose to commit a crime while a visitor in another country - any country - you put your immigration status at risk.

I haven't heard the story so I'm not going to comment on whether a crime was even committed.

Well from what I heard it had to do with the amount on a bill and the students felt like they were being overcharged. I guess if they don't pay the bill it is crime.
