"Five-year-old Miles already has experience fighting villains - he's been facing off with acute lymphoblastic leukemia since he was 20 months old.

With his cancer in remission and his last bout of chemotherapy finished in June, his biggest wish was to continue living his life heroically. "He wanted to be Batman," said Patricia Wilson, the Make-A-Wish Foundation's Bay Area executive director."

What Miles doesn't know is that parts of SF have been turned into GOTHAM CITY, just for him. Thousands are turning out to be part of the day-long adventure.

Even the SF police are getting into it. The police have just issued a call for help from Batkid.

Updates to come.
