Powerball player wins $100,000 in Pennsylvania. Where was the lucky ticket sold?
A Powerball player in Pennsylvania won $100,000, just missing the $479 million jackpot, lottery officials say.
The ticket matched four winning numbers, the Powerball and the Power Play multiplier in the drawing Saturday, Aug. 9, the Pennsylvania Lottery said.
The lucky ticket was sold at a Rutter’s gas station in Spring Grove Boro, which is about a 110-mile drive west from Philadelphia, lottery officials told McClatchy News in an email.
A ticket sold in Illinois won a $1 million prize.
The winning numbers were 7, 14, 23, 24 and 60 with a Powerball of 14. The Power Play multiplier was 2x.
Powerball jackpot rises
Nobody won the grand prize, which rises to an estimated $501 million, with a cash value of about $229.5 million, for the next drawing Monday, Aug. 11, the national Powerball site said.
More than 840,000 other Powerball tickets sold in the United States also won prizes ranging from $4 to $100,000, the lottery said.
The Powerball jackpot was last won May 31, when a California player hit the $204.5 million grand prize.
