What was considered the first battle of the American Revolution also the shot heard round the world was fired here?
it is the battle of Lexington and concord
At the battle of Lexington and Concord who shot first?
Unknown to this day, but recently I read a plausible theory about why the shot may have been fired. There was a tavern nearby, and it was against the rules to bring a loaded musket inside. The only way to unload a musket was to fire it. Someone may have stepped inside for a drink, firing his musket in the air first. I think it unlikely that the British would have fired first without orders, but some of the Colonials may have panicked and fired when they heard the first shot.
Who led the battle of Lexington and concord?
No one led the battle of Lexington. It was an event that just happened and history does not report who fired the first shot.

When it was all done the British reorganized and continued their march to Concord.
