Best Answer

The British were enroute to Concord to confiscate firearms from the Colonials (Americans); the Colonials (Americans) met them at Concord Bridge...with firearms! Someone opened fire first (no one will own up to it or if they did, no one can confirm it), this was known as the "shot heard around the world", and the battle commenced.
