We report a giant X-ray flare event detected in a Swift observation of SN2007uy. On 2008 Jan 9 UT, Swift performed a 5 ks follow-up observation of SN2007uy (ATel #1350). While SN2007uy was not detected with XRT, a bright X-ray point source was found ~90 arcsec from SN2007uy. The derived position of this new X-ray source is R.A.=9h09m30.6s, Decl.=+33:08:18 (J2000) with a 3.6 arcsec error circle (90% confidence) and the source is located near the edge of the edge-on galaxy NGC 2770.
