The first ever identification of a cosmic ray accelerator as the consequence of spacial and temporal correlation of IceCube event 170922A with flaring of a blazar TXS 0506+056 motivated us to look for other flaring blazars in Fermi-LAT 3FGL catalog, which could be correlated with IceCube high energy track events. We have studied the Fermi-LAT light curves of blazars correlated with neutrino track events. Among the eight sources identified within 2$sigma$ angular uncertainty of the IceCube track events selected in our study, we find only one source 3FGL J2255+2409 was in flaring state during the neutrino detection. We have carried out a time dependent modelling of the multi-wavelength data from this blazar, and the neutrino event including leptonic energy losses and proton-proton interactions in its jet to determine whether it could be the origin of the neutrino event. Our lepto-hadronic model estimates a jet luminosity of $L_j = 3.6 times10^{47}$ erg/sec during the neutrino phase of 3FGL/4FGL J2255+2409.
