How to create a sprites then remove a specific sprite in SpriteKit with Swift by touch?

I want to create a bunch of sprites and remove them one at a time when I touch them. So far what happens is that when I add the code, the last sprite gets removed and not the sprite I touch. 

var sprite = SKSpriteNode?()
var touchLocation : CGPoint?


for touch in touches {

        let location = touch.locationInNode(self)                  
        touchLocation = location
        addASprite()        
    }
    removeSprite()

}

func addASprite(){
        sprite = SKSpriteNode(color: UIColor.orangeColor(), size: CGSize(width: 100, height: 100))

        sprite!.position = touchLocation!
        self.addChild(sprite!)

}

func removeSprite(){


        if ((sprite?.containsPoint(touchLocation!) != nil)){

            sprite?.removeFromParent()

        }

}

To remove touched node:

override func touchesBegan(touches: Set<UITouch>, withEvent event: UIEvent?) {

    for touch in touches {
        let location = touch.locationInNode(self)
        let touchedNode = nodeAtPoint(location)
        touchedNode.removeFromParent()
    }
