A Pennsylvania Lottery retailer in Northampton County sold a Powerball ticket worth $1 million in the Oct. 6 drawing.
The ticket matched all five white balls drawn, 1-17-52-58-64, to win $1 million, less applicable withholding. Turkey Hill, 4205 Lehigh Drive, Cherryville, earns a $5,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
Winners are not known until prizes are claimed and tickets are validated. Pennsylvania Lottery Powerball winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes. The holder of the winning ticket should sign the back of the ticket and contact the nearest lottery office.
More than 24,100 other Pennsylvania Lottery Powerball tickets won prizes of various amounts in the drawing, including more than 5,900 tickets purchased with Power Play and more than 3,600 tickets purchased with Double Play. Players should check every ticket, every time.
The Powerball jackpot rolled to an estimated annuity value of $31 million, or $22 million cash, for the next drawing, which was scheduled for Oct. 9.
