A total of five. While the colonists and later historians referred to it as a massacre, the truth is that not many people died during the event. The Boston Massacre took place on March 5, 1770, and it is considered by some scholars to be the first battle of what became the Revolutionary War. It was a motivating factor for the colonists, further convincing them of the need to rebel against England. Among the five who died was a free black man names Crispus Attucks.

It was used by the colonists to incite others to act against the British. It has been proven the event happened differently than reported . John Adams was the lawyer for the soliders. History channel a few years ago had a really good program investigating this. See if you can find it.
