Winning Lottery Ticket Worth $1 Million Sold In Montgomery County

MIDDLETOWN, Pa. (CBS)—Before the Powerball jackpot reached $108 million for the October 9th drawing, one Powerball ticket worth $1 million from the October 5 drawing was sold in Montgomery County.

The winning ticket matched all five white balls, 11-12-17-39-40, but not the red Powerball 05, for a $1 million second-tier prize.

The retailer, Giant Food Store, located on 1824 Ridge Pike in Royersford, will receive a $5,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.

Lottery officials cannot confirm the identity of the winner until the prize is claimed and the ticket is validated. Pennsylvania Lottery Powerball winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes.

If you have the winning ticket, lottery officials urge you to sign the back of it then call them at 717-702-8146 and file a claim at any of Lottery's seven area offices or at Lottery headquarters in Middletown, Dauphin County.
