It wasn’t the big Powerball jackpot, but someone in Allegheny County is one of three people in the state to win a pretty nice chunk of change.
The Pennsylvania Lottery says someone won $200,000 after buying a ticket at the Giant Eagle in Brentwood on Towne Square Way.
Another $200,000 ticket was sold in Lycoming County. Those tickets matched four of the five white ball numbers drawn on Monday night, 5-8-9-17-41, to win the prize.
Another ticket, sold in Delaware County, is worth $1 million after matching five of the five white balls, but not the red Powerball.
Wednesday’s Powerball drawing is now at $1 billion or $516.8 million cash. It is the seventh-largest in United States history and the third-largest Powerball jackpot.
Even if you didn’t win a big prize, the lottery says over 166,800 other tickets have some sort of cash prize.
Big prize winners should sign the back of their ticket immediately and contact the lottery to begin the claiming process.
