— -- A plane piloted by Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Oklahoma) ran off the runway Sunday night in Ketchum, Oklahoma.

According to a spokesperson for the senator, he was out flying with another local pilot, each in separate planes, when severe weather forced him to make an unscheduled landing in Ketchum.

An FAA statement says the pilot reported veering into some brush to avoid a deer on the runway. The FAA would not say who was flying the plane, but the senator's spokesperson confirmed to ABC News that he was at the controls.

There were no passengers in the senator's plane.

Inhofe was uninjured, and is now home with family celebrating the July 4th holiday, his spokesperson said.

The aircraft was a Harmon Rocket, tail number N73MM, according to the FAA, which is investigating the incident.
