Observations were made with\nthe SPRAT spectrograph, and supernova classifications were obtained using\nSNID (Blondin & Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024).\n\n\niPTF17bpw was observed on 2017-03-02 at 22:20UT. The transient is centrally\nlocated within its host galaxy and the spectrum shows strong emission lines\nindicative of an AGN.\n\niPTF17bou was observed on 2017-03-02 at 22:53UT. We tentatively classify\nthis transient as a type II SN at +58 days with z=0.131.",
