The observations were carried out in VT_B (400nm-650nm) and VT_R (650nm-1000nm) channel simultaneously.\n\nIn the stacked VT_R image with an exposure time of 14*100 sec, an uncatalogued source was detected in the errorbox of XRT source #2(P. A. Evans et al., GCN 38828), while no any new source was detected within the errorbox of XRT source #1, compared to Pan-STARRS catalog.  \n\nThe brightness of the uncatalogued source was VT_R=22.5+/-0.3 mag in AB miniguide at the mid time of 0.965 hours after the burst. \nThe source was not detected in VT_B stacked image with a 3 sigma limit of 23.3 mag at the mid time of 0.966 hours after the burst. \n\n\nThe source is located at RA, Dec = 117.37078 63.70817 deg, which is equivalent to:\nRA (J2000) : 07:49:28.99\nDec (J2000): +63:42:29.4\nwith an uncertainty of 0.5 arcsec.\n\nMore deep follow-ups are encouraged for the nature of the source.\n\nThe Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a China-France joint mission led by the Chinese National Space Administration (CNSA, China), National Center for Space Studies (CNES, France) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS, China), which is dedicated to observing gamma-ray bursts and other transient phenomena in the energetic universe. VT was jointly developed by Xi'an Institute of Optics and Precision Mechanics (XIOPM), CAS and National astronomical observatories (NAOC),CAS.\n\n",
