No one ever tried to shoot President Nixon. The only assassination attempt (which never came close to succeeding) was by Samuel Byck on February 22, 1974. Byck shot and killed a security officer and a pilot while trying to hijack an airliner at Baltimore-Washington International Airport. Byck planned to crash into the White House, but was shot and committed suicide.
