A. Melandri (INAF-OAB), C. Guidorzi (U. Ferrara), A. Gomboc (U. Ljubljana) and C. G. Mundell (LJMU) on behalf of a larger collaboration report:

The 2-m Faulkes Telescope North automatically began observing INTEGRAL GRB 140320C (Mereghetti et al. GCN 16007) on March 20 at 13:21:39.3 UT (~4.3 min after the burst trigger).

We do not find any fading candidate in our first 10s image within the entire INTEGRAL error circle down to a limiting magnitude or R>19.5 (5 sigma upper limit).
