He is a greedy murderous racer participating in the Steel Ball Run race and minor antagonists in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run.

He and his brother and father wield the shared Stand named Tomb of the Boom, all of which having the same ability of magnetism.

L. A. is a young androgynous man with long flowing ginger hair, and shadowed eyes. He wears the same dotted suit as his brother and father with a target imprinted on the chest and wears goggles on his head.
Personality[]
L.A. is shown to be dimwitted as he is unable to do basic math as well as being extremely naïve, believing that his mother was a stork because Andre told him so. This child like world view extends to how he looks up to his older brother and father being dependent on them whenever they activate their stand ability father . He also does not mind the constant insults thrown at him by his family, however, L.A is capable of having keen observation and caution as well as being far more irate in comparison to the two as he lashed out in anger at Gyro after his father was killed by Johnny.
History[]
L.A. and his family gained their Stand ability while looking for mines in the Devil's Palm.
During the first stage of the Steel Ball Run race, they kill three other racers, attracting the attention of the local sheriff and bounty hunter Mountain Tim, who is also a participant in the race. Sometime after the Boom Booms caught on to a bounty placed on Gyro's head and decided to hunt him next.
After his brother Andre tricks Gyro and Johnny and manages to transform the first into a human magnet, Benjamin and L. A. attack them unsuccessfully. However, Benjamin quickly comes up a new strategy, turning Johnny and Mountain Tim into magnets too. Leaving Andre alone, L.A. and Benjamin trail the sheriff Mountain Tim and Johnny and Gyro, but before the magnetism can kill all three, the cow-boy uses his own Stand to stop himself from colliding with Gyro and Johnny.
L.A. and Benjamin are forced to approach the trio. L.A. uses his Stand to immobilize Gyro and Johnny and Benjamin cuts Oh! Lonesome Me, forcing the three to collide, almost killing them.
However, Johnny awakens a Stand Power and cuts Benjamin in two, as well as severing one of L.A.'s feet. With his father lying in his arms, L. A. reveals that their actual goal was killing Gyro in order to earn his bounty. Even if all members of the Boom Boom family are doomed, L. A. says that Gyro won't see the end of the race, because other people will try to be rid of him. After their father's death, L. A. is left with limited water and out of sight from the rescue team dying sometime after.
