Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
A jury convicted Gregory Anderson of robbing three banks in the Twin Cities. At a post-Booker resentencing, the district court sentenced Anderson at the low end of the advisory guidelines range to 210 months in prison.
On appeal, Anderson first challenges the sufficiency of the evidence supporting his convictions, asserting the evidence is unreliable eyewitness testimony. Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the verdict, we conclude a reasonable jury could have found Anderson guilty of the three robberies beyond a reasonable doubt. See United States v. Hollins, 432 F.3d 809, 811 (8th Cir.2005). The surveillance tape of each bank robbery shows the same man, identified as Anderson, robbing each of the three banks. A police detective recognized the person in the tape as Anderson from earlier experiences with him. Further, each of the three victim tellers positively identified Anderson as the person who robbed them.
Anderson also challenges his sentence. Anderson argues the jury, not the court, should have decided whether his earlier convictions qualified as crimes of violence for sentencing purposes. As Anderson acknowledges, this argument is contrary to our precedents. See United States v. Carrillo-Beltran, 424 F.3d 845, 848 (8th Cir.2005); United States v. Wilson, 406 F.3d 1074, 1075 (8th Cir.2005); United States v. Marcussen, 403 F.3d 982, 984 (8th Cir.2005). Anderson asserts these cases are wrongly decided, but one panel of this court cannot overturn the decisions of other panels. See United States v. Hutman, 339 F.3d 773, 777 (8th Cir.2003). Anderson also contends his sentence is unreasonable. We disagree. Because Anderson's sentence is within the advisory guidelines range, we presume it is reasonable. United States v. Davidson, 437 F.3d 737 (8th Cir.2006). Anderson has failed to overcome the presumption. See id. The district court considered all of the factors in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) before concluding a sentence of 210 months was appropriate. Having carefully reviewed the record, we agree the sentence is reasonable given the severity of the robbery offenses and Anderson's lengthy criminal history. See Marcussen, 403 F.3d at 985.
We thus affirm the district court.
The Honorable Richard H. Kyle, United States District Court for the District of Minnesota.
