A huge Powerball jackpot was won in Allegheny County Monday night.

The $213.8 million jackpot ticket matching all five white balls drawn, 9,22,57,67,68, and red Powerball 14, was sold at AJ’s Pizza and Hoagies on Harts Run Road in Indiana Township.

There is also a cash option of $106.4 million.

The jackpot is the first won in Pennsylvania since August 2022 when a $206.9 million jackpot was won in Westmoreland County.

Since 1992, it is the 20th jackpot won in PA.

Winners should sign the back of their ticket immediately and can visit the Lottery’s website to learn more about filing a claim.

Even if you didn’t win the big jackpot, over 22,200 other Powerball tickets sold in the commonwealth have a prize on them.

This current Powerball jackpot began rolling on July 3 and now resets to a prize of $20 million for Wednesday’s drawing.

“The Pennsylvania Lottery congratulates the lucky winner and our retailer, [AJ's Pizza], for selling this big Powerball jackpot-winning ticket,” said Pennsylvania Lottery Executive Director Drew Svitko. “Thanks to our loyal players and our network of nearly 10,000 retailers across Pennsylvania, the PA Lottery is able to continue generating proceeds to pay for life-sustaining programs and services our senior population relies upon.”
