Paul Revere made a midnight run to warn the people of Lexington and Concord. He cried to them, "The British are Coming, The British are Coming!" He never reached Concord, but told all of Lexington.
Paul Revere, William Dawes, and Samuel Prescott.
Paul Revere rode to warn the people in Lexington and Concord that the British were coming.
first battle of the people and the british
Both battles occurred on April 19, 1775: first the Battle of Lexington (a British victory) and then the Battle of Concord (an American victory). Both battles were mainly caused by the Boston Massacre. Some people think the Americans attacked at Lexington for revenge. The Americans started retreating toward Concord, where they met reinforcements and were able to overpower the British soldiers.
Paul Revere
Paul Revere rode to warn the people of Lexington and Concord that the British were coming. However he was captured. William Dawes was the rider that made it through the lines.
Because Concord was the city where the Americans were supposadly hiding weapons (which they were), so the British marched from Boston to Lexington, to Concord... This is when Paul Revere warns people "The British are Coming" Unfortunately, he never made it to warn about the British, but Dr. Prescott did... He warned the people of Concord about the oncoming attack, and the militia came to ready...... This was one of the FIRST battles the Americans won in the Revolutionary war.... -Go History =)

The story of Paul Revere was written by Longfellow in a poem published in 1861 called the Midnight Ride of Paul Revere and since that time most people think Revere did the ride to Concord. He didn't. He was hired by the Son's of Liberty to do the ride, was arrested by a British patrol between Boston and Lexington. Two men by the names of Prescott and Dawes actually got to Concord to warn the Son's of Liberty meeting there.
