Boston Massacre:
On March 5, 1770 British soldiers fire on a group of unarmed American colonists during a riot in Boston, killing five men. The crowd of men and boys had been throwing objects at the troops. The incident, dubbed the Boston Massacre, heightens anti-British feelings in the 13 colonies, which will rebel against Britain in the American Revolution (1775-1783).
