SAN ANTONIO — Police arrested a man Thursday suspected in at least two bank robberies in after receiving a tip on the suspect's identity.
Samuel Miranda, 27, is now charged with aggravated robbery and possession of a stolen vehicle.
"I did this s--t because I was all f---ed up at the time," Miranda said while being transported to the Bexar County Jail, adding he had loved ones he needed to provide for.
Officer Doug Greene, a spokesman for the San Antonio Police Department, said Miranda is accused of robbing a bank in the 200 block of South Zarzamora Road on Jan. 14.
Days later, he allegedly robbed another bank at gunpoint in the 1000 block of Goliad Road on Jan. 15.

Greene said police are still investigating the case because they believe Miranda might have robbed several other banks.
"This investigation is far from over," Greene said.
Police arrested Miranda without incident around 11 a.m. at the intersection of Guadalupe Street and Zarzamora Road after receiving a tip that Miranda was tied to the robberies.
When asked if anyone else had assisted in the robberies, Miranda said he was the sole actor.
"Who else would do it?" he said.
