If Lexington you are referring to the American Revolution. Then the Battle on Lexington Green was the first skirmish of the American Revolution. The "shot heard around the world" was fired on April 19th 1775 when an unknown shot was discharged. The American colonists and the British soldiers not knowing who fired engaged each other in a fire fight which 8 militia men were killed and one British soldier was wounded.
