'Bored' robbery suspect suffers from impulsive behavior, police say
A Florida man is accused of two robberies in one week. Orlando police officers said 45-year-old Nicolas Zapater-Lamadrid is accused of handing notes to a bank teller and a gas station clerk demanding cash. Police said he told them he was "bored" and that he suffers from impulsive behavior.
ORLANDO, Fla. - A Florida man who was arrested after police connected him to two recent robberies told officers he did the crimes because he was "bored."
Nicolas Zapater-Lamadrid, 45, reportedly robbed a TD Bank in Orlando and a Circle K gas station two days apart, police said.
On Dec. 5, around 9:30 a.m., detectives arrived at the TD Bank on the 2400 block of South Orange Ave where a teller was handed a typed note with the words "Assault" and "Money." The teller believed Zapater-Lamadrid had a gun and took off running after receiving the money.
On Dec. 7, around 7 p.m., at the Circle K on the 2700 block of South Fern Creek Avenue, a clerk was handed a typed note that read, "Give me all the money and a pack of 305’s 100’s please."
Zapater-Lamadrid reportedly kept his hands in his pocket implying he had a weapon, police said. During both robberies, he was wearing the same black hat with "POLICE" across the front and the same pair of shades.

When officers arrived on the scene, about two minutes later, they said Zapater-Lamadrid was standing in front of the store with the stolen money and cigarettes on him.
He gave police a full confession after his arrest stating that he walked to Circle K to rob it because he was "bored" and has an "impulse problem."
