While examining images of star TCP J20225930+5239030 on date 2019-07-10 00:55:28 UT, we located a flare star at RA 20:21:45.6  Dec +52:47:35.

A series of 20 images were made that night and the flare appears only in frame 3. The faint (> mag 16) star is visible in all of the images.

Searching images of the same area taken on other nights, does not reveal any additional flares.
