DETROIT (WWJ) - We have a Powerball winner!
Lottery officials say a single winning ticket matching all six numbers for Wednesday night's jackpot was sold in Massachusetts for the $758.7 million prize ($480.5 million cash option). That single winning ticket was sold at the Pride Station & Store in Chicopee, in western Massachusetts.
The lucky numbers for the second largest lottery prize in U.S. history were 6-7-16-23-26, Powerball 4.
The big ticket might not have been sold in Michigan, but some lottery players here at home were still quite lucky.
Three Match 5 tickets were sold in Michigan, good for $1 million each. State lottery officials say those tickets were sold at Old West Tobacco in Novi, Melvindale Liquor Market in Melvinale, and O'connor's Deli in Fowlerville.
Another 13 tickets matched 4 plus the Powerball for a $50,000 prize.
The jackpot resets to $40 million for Saturday night's drawing.
