Abstract
Following the CRTS detection of a new optical transient near the Galactic plane (b~30 deg), SSS130101:122222 (ATel #4699), we searched in the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE; Wright et al. 2010 AJ, 140, 1868) catalog and found a possible WISE pre-burst counterpart, WISE J122221.66-311524.6, with an offset of 0.5 arcsec.
