General Thomas Gage sent soldiers to Lexington to arrest colonial leaders Samuel Adams and John Hancock and to seize the stockpile of weapons and ammunition stored by the militias. This action was part of the British government's efforts to maintain control over the increasingly rebellious American colonies. The mission escalated tensions, ultimately leading to the confrontations at Lexington and Concord, which marked the beginning of armed conflict in the American Revolutionary War.
