Answer
A
British troops retreated from the fierce fighting with minutemen.
B
British troops captured all of the colonists’ ammunition.
C
Minutemen retreated from fierce fighting with British troops.
D
Minutemen went into hiding after British troops arrived.

Explanation

In April 1775, British soldiers marched to Concord to seize colonial military supplies. At the North Bridge, minutemen fought them, and the British troops eventually retreated toward Boston under fire. They did not capture all the ammunition, so the correct choice is “British troops retreated from the fierce fighting with minutemen.”
