The OGLE-IV Transient Search (Wyrzykowski et al. ATEL #4495, Kozlowski et al. 2013) reports the discovery of five new on-going transient candidates. The transients appeared near or on top of apparent galaxies, hence are most likely to be supernovae. Their light curves indicate most of them are near their peak brightness.
