A fortunate resident from North Carolina scoops $950,000 recently
A lucky Powerball player in Northern California scored nearly $1 million on a ticket that matched the first five numbers in Wednesday night's draw, according to the California Lottery.
The 5/5 ticket worth $952,000 was sold at Rose Food & Liquor at 215 Harding Blvd. in Roseville, a suburb of Sacramento, the lottery said.
The winning numbers in Wednesday night's $435 million Powerball draw were 2-12-37-56-65 and the Powerball 21. No jackpot tickets were sold, so the Powerball pot rises to an estimated $468 million for Saturday's draw.

The unexpected windfall promises to be life-changing for the lucky resident, who can now look forward to a brighter and more prosperous future.
