British troops
The British probably fired on the colonists.
Revere and Dawes alerted the colonists of the British troops, thus allowing them to be ready with troops of their own when the British came.
im pretty sure it was the french that fired on fort neseccity not the British
to battle against the colonists, because the British troops tried to revolt against them
The Bostinians were angry with the British troops in their town because the British were taxing them heavily in order to pay for the cost of the French and Indian war. The British used methods like the Stamp Act and the Navigation Acts to get more money. When the British saw the colonists getting angrier and getting close to the state of rebellion, they sent in troops to Boston to control the colonists. This eventually caused the Boston Massacre, in which seven British soldiers fired into an American crowd, killing five colonists.
