But like all we make mistakes, he was charged because of his <span>Copernican heliocentric writings. What these writings meant was earth revolved around the sun and not the other way around </span>

Why did conflict break out at Lexington and Concord?

frutty [35]

“Paul Revere and other riders sounded the alarm, and colonial militiamen began mobilizing to intercept the Redcoat column. A confrontation on the Lexington town green started off the fighting, and soon the British were hastily retreating under intense fire.”

Found this online.

Sounds like they basically alerted the militiamen that the Redcoats were coming, and they geared up to intercept them, which started the fight once they arrived.
