The sentence contains three errors: using 'or' instead of 'nor,' a subject-verb agreement mistake by using 'have' instead of 'has,' and the incorrect pronoun 'him,' which should be 'them.' The corrected sentence reads: "Neither the man nor his brother has any idea if the brick was thrown at them." These corrections ensure proper grammatical structure.
