The fighting in Lexington, part of the Revolutionary War, began on April 19, 1775, when British troops marched to confiscate colonial weapons and arrest revolutionary leaders. Patriot militias, alerted by riders like Paul Revere, gathered to confront the British forces. Tensions escalated, leading to a confrontation where shots were fired, marking the "shot heard 'round the world" and igniting the conflict between Britain and the American colonies. This event symbolized the start of open hostilities in the struggle for American independence.
