Captain Thomas Preston was the British Redcoat who supposedly told his fellow Redcoats to fire but, he did not, it was Private Hugh Montgomery.Private Hugh Montgomery was struck down onto the ground by a club. When he recovered to his feet, he fired his musket, later admitting to one of his defense attorneys that he had yelled "Damn you, fire!".It is presumed that Captain Preston would not have told the soldiers to fire, as he was standing in front of the guns, between his men and the crowd of protesters. However, the protesters in the crowd were taunting the soldiers by yelling "Fire". There was a pause of indefinite length; the soldiers then fired into the crowd. Their uneven bursts hit eleven men. Three Americans - ropemaker Samuel Gray, mariner James Caldwell, and a mixed race American sailor named Crispus Attucks - died instantly. Seventeen-year-old Samuel Maverick, struck by a ricocheting musket ball at the back of the crowd, died a few hours later, in the early morning of the next day. Thirty-year-old Irish immigrant Patrick Carr died two weeks later. To keep the peace, the next day royal authorities agreed to remove all troops from the centre of town to a fort on Castle Island in Boston Harbor. On March 27 the soldiers, Captain Preston and four men who were in the Customs House and alleged to have fired shots, were indicted for murder. -jennalynn72

No. The Minute Men did not organize until after Lexington and Concord.
The Boston Massacre happened because a lot of colonists began to throw rocks and snow balls at the Redcoats. One of the soldiers called for backup and more soldiers came. The leader of the group shouted "Hold your fire!" one of the men only heard "Fire!" thus making him think that he should shoot his gun. The other men thought they should shoot to because he shot his gun..... it was a misunderstanding.
