  Although the majority of hot magnetic stars have extremely stable, $\sim$kG
strength surface magnetic fields with simple topologies, a subset undergo
small-scale explosions due to centrifugal breakout (CBO). The resulting
small-scale flares are typically below the sensitivity of current
magentospheric diagnostics and do not generate detectable transient signatures.
However, a recently reported radio flare from the hot magnetic star CU Vir
suggests that some of the most energetic events do reach detectable levels.
Motivated by this, we searched for transient radio sources in the first two
epochs of the VLITE Commensal Sky Survey (VCSS) at the position of 761 hot
magnetic stars. We report three detections. A false association analysis shows
a less than 1% probability that the sources are imaging artifacts. We then
examine the stellar parameters of the three stars to understand if they are
likely to produce flares. We conclude that while at this stage we cannot make a
definitive association of the detections with the stars, the current data are
consistent with the hypothesis that the flares originate in the stellar
magnetospheres.
