A winning $50,000 Powerball lottery ticket is sold out in portage
It wasn't the $675 million jackpot. But someone who purchased a Powerball Double Play lottery ticket for Monday's drawing at a Northwest Indiana gas station likely still has a big smile on their face.
According to the Hoosier Lottery, a ticket sold in Portage for the multistate lottery game matched four of the five white balls and the red Powerball in the Double Play drawing to win $50,000 — the game’s third-highest prize.
The lucky ticket was sold at Family Express, 5901 U.S. Hwy. 6, lottery officials said Monday's winning Powerball Double Play numbers were 21-30-37-41-56 and Powerball 14.
Double Play is a $1 add-on to a $2 Powerball ticket that enables purchasers to use their Powerball numbers in an immediate second chance drawing with a top prize of $10 million.
