The arrival direction of the recently detected high-energy (~604 TeV) neutrino, IceCube GOLD alert 220425A (GCN #
31944), coincides with the blazar TXS 1749-101. This blazar was previously selected as an association for another high-energy neutrino event, IceCube EHE alert 181023A (GCN #
23375), by
Plavin et al. (2020). The neutrino arrival moment coincided with a 2018 radio flare of the blazar. TXS 1749-101 is a gamma-ray source listed in 4FGL, but is not significantly detected by Fermi in the last month, as reported in GCN #
31953.
