The phrase "Who fired the first shot?" is often associated with the Battles of Lexington and Concord, which marked the beginning of the American Revolutionary War. The exact answer to who fired the first shot remains unclear and is a topic of historical debate. Many accounts suggest that both sides may have fired simultaneously, but there is no definitive answer. Therefore, the most accurate choice based on historical interpretations would be "No one knows."
