Massachusetts Lottery Player Wins $1 Million on Instant Ticket

Mary Leary, a lucky lottery player in Massachusetts, hit the jackpot with a $1 million win on the "$4,000,000 Diamonds" instant ticket.

She purchased the winning ticket at Sunrise Market in Wilmington.

After scratching off the ticket at a barbershop with her husband, Leary discovered her good fortune. She decided to take a one-time payment of $650,000 (before taxes) and plans to use some of her winnings for a well-deserved vacation.

The store will also receive a $10,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
