Fighting erupts at Lexington and Concord Some New England towns began to prepare for war against Britain. Minutemen, or civilian soldiers, stored guns and ammunition in secret hid aways. In 1775, the British marched to Concord, Massachusetts, to seize these weapons. Colonists, including Paul Revere, watched the troops march out of Boston. Revere rode ahead of the troops on his horse. He warned people that the British were heading for Concord.

Several minutemen were killed, while others were injured. The British suffered only one causality. The Battle of Lexington lasted only 15 minutes.
