When police in Picayune, Mississippi learned that he wished for a real drum set, they teamed up with a music store owner to have his favorite superhero deliver the gift of music for a job well done.
“They asked us if there's any way we could figure out what a drum kit would cost, how to get one, [and] what we can do to physically raise the money to get one," said Sean Murray, the owner of a music store called Christy Music. "And we got a drum kit order within an hour and sent to us. We got the last one they had in stock.”
Cpl. John Saltarelli with the Picayune Police Department said Cornelius is a big fan of Batman.
"[We] thought we’d come out here and dress up as Batman and give a drum set away."
Corneluis was happy to receive the drum set from Batman and thanked everybody involved.
