SAN ANTONIO – Several law enforcement agencies came together today to put smiles back on the faces of hospitalized children.

Members of the San Antonio Police Department, San Antonio Fire Department and SWAT Team participated in the 10th annual Julian Andrade Superhero Drop.

The agents dressed up as various superheroes and fought off North Central Baptist Hospital.

“They push each other off the roof of the Baptist hospital here to spread joy to sick children. It’s just a wonderful event,” said Nick Soliz with SAPD.

The children were able to see superheroes like Deadpool, Spiderman, Wolverine and many more.

“We always joke and say this event is bigger than Christmas here, because we have superheroes every year,” said Jordan Meyer, a nurse at the hospital.

This event is something that law enforcement, hospital personnel, and children can look forward to every Halloween.

“It’s really good for the kids to make sure they can still take part in all the Halloween festivities.” Even if they can’t eat or drink, we make sure to give them options like bubbles, Play Doh or toys so they can still participate,” Meyer said.

This event is in honor of Julian Andrade, the son of an SAPD officer who lost his battle with cancer.
