Abstract
The Large Area Telescope (LAT), one of the two instruments on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, observed a gamma-ray outburst from a source positionally consistent with the flat spectrum radio quasar B2 2319+31, also known as TXS 2319+317 and BZQJ2321+3204 (RA 23h21m54.9559s DEC +32d04m07.622s, J2000.0, Petrov et al. 2005) with redshift z=1.489 (Shaw et al. 2012).
