One of Friday’s jackpot-winning lottery tickets was bought in Miami-Dade

Friday’s Cash4Life, Jackpot Triple Play, Fantasy 5 and Mega Millions drawings produced three winners, one in Miami-Dade, of one jackpot.

That won jackpot wasn’t the Mega Millions big prize, which will be up to $714 million on Tuesday.

The numbers 14, 17, 18, 29 and 30 came up in the Fantasy 5 evening draw and were popular selections, human and otherwise. A player at Miami Gardens’ Super Stop convenience store, 255 NW 199th St., chose those numbers, and they were on Quick Pick tickets bought at an Orlando Walmart Market and a Lake Hamilton grocery store.

The three-way split put each ticket’s share at $38,659.

These tickets must be cashed at a Florida Lottery office, one of which is in Miami Lakes at 14621 Oak Ln. The office is open 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Appointments can be made, but aren’t required, at MIARC@flalottery.com or by calling 305-364-3080.
