Answer:

Explanation:

The Boston Massacre was a street fight that occurred on March 5, 1770, between a "patriot" mob, throwing snowballs, stones, and sticks, and a squad of British soldiers. Several colonists were killed and this led to a campaign by speech-writers to rouse the ire of the citizenry.

What happened during the Boston Massacre in 1770 was that British soldiers killed five colonists in Massachusetts.

What started as a street fight between a British soldier and common people in colonial Boston, ended up as a massacre that became one of the reasons that years later caused the Revolutionary War. The incident happened on March 5, 1770, on King Street, Boston. Colonists insulted the British soldier and he responded hurting a colonist. That is when Captain Preston led some English soldiers and opened fire against the colonist.
