Family: Accused bank robber had history of trouble
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Relatives of a man whom the FBI dubbed the ``Bucket List Bandit'' because he told victims he had a terminal illness say they were not surprised he's once again on the wrong side of the law.
Michael Eugene Brewster of Pensacola, Fla., was arrested Thursday after running a stop sign near a casino in Roland, Okla. The FBI suspects he is responsible for knocking off 10 banks in nine states.
Ronald Brewster of Cincinnati told The Associated Press his brother may have ``wanted to go down with a bang,'' but acknowledged he cut off contact with his brother years ago.
Michael Brewster has a lengthy criminal record that includes prison stints in Ohio and Kentucky.
