During the assassination attempt, McCarthy spread his stance to protect Reagan as six bullets were being fired by the would-be assassin, John Hinckley Jr. McCarthy stepped in front of President Reagan, taking a bullet to the chest, but made a full recovery.
After the assassination attempt, McCarthy was hailed as a hero and received the NCAA Award of Valor in 1982. Provided by Wikipedia
