Answer:

The Boston Massacre

Explanation:

The Boston Massacre took place on the night of Monday, March 5, 1770. The tension caused by the military occupation of Boston was increased after the firing of a group of soldiers against a group of protesters protesting against the rate hike. of the metropolis England to recover from the economic losses after the war. John Adams would later say that, after the night of the Boston Massacre, the desire for independence of the United States of America began.

The incident began when a young apprentice of a wig maker named Edward Garrick, approached a Customs House official requesting a payment from his master. When the apprentice, being ignored, became noisy in his demands, a British sentinel, the soldier of the first White, removed the young man from the building and beat him. Garrick, furious, came back with a group of settlers and threw snowballs, ice and rubbish at White.

The commotion sent out the guard officer, Captain Thomas Preston, who came to White's aid with a corporal and a group of eight first-rate soldiers from the 29th Regiment on Foot. The crowd grew in size and continued throwing stones, wood and pieces of ice to the British soldiers.

Amid the confusion, the "do not shoot" order issued by Captain Preston was heard. One of the soldiers, the soldier of first Hugh Montgomery, fell to the ground due to a blow, which took to him to shoot "accidentally" to the air his musket. (Later, though, he would admit that he deliberately shot the crowd.) The other soldiers panicked and started firing at the crowd. Five people died, the three settlers Samuel Gray, James Caldwell and Crispus Attucks (a mulatto), would die instantly, and two others, Samuel Maverick (the next day) and Patrick Carr (about a week later). The facts were described by a Boston silversmith and engraver named Paul Revere, who lived nearby in an engraving. Revere describes the facts incorrectly in the engraving. According to him, it was a hand-to-hand fight, with no snow on the ground, Attucks was white, and the British Commander was always behind his troops. In the engraving, the poster of the "House of Customs", is altered to put "Carnicería".
