No one knows who fired the first shot. Six companies of British infantry marched into Lexington at dawn, where they found the town militia in formation on Lexington Common. A British officer ordered the militia to lay down their guns, which they did not do. Both the Captain leading the militia and the Major in charge of the British told their men to fire, but their orders were not heard in the noise and confusion.
