The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB

At 20:48:51 UT on 2 Dec 2019, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 191202A (trigger 597012536.229574 / 191202867).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 245.3, Dec = 16.8 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 16h 21m, 16d 48'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.0 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 15.0 degrees.
