T. Laskar, A. Zauderer, and E. Berger (Harvard) report:

"We observed the position of GRB 140304A (Evans et al; GCN 15915) with
the VLA beginning on 2014 May 5.01 UT (0.45 days after the burst). At a
mean frequency of 6 GHz, we detect a radio source with a preliminary flux
density of ~ 0.05 mJy at

RA = 02:02:34.173 +/- 0.001
Dec = 33:28:26.01 +/- 0.02

consistent with the enhanced Swft/XRT position (Beardmore et al.; GCN
15925) and the optical position (Gorbovskoy et al.; GCN 15914). Follow-up
observations are planned."
