Michigan Man Wins $1 Million in Powerball Drawing

A man from Michigan won $1 million by correctly guessing five numbers in a Powerball drawing held on Sept. 30 with just a $2 ticket.

Waleed Abdulshafi, a 65-year-old resident of Dearborn, recently claimed his $1 million prize after matching the five white balls in the Sept. 30 drawing.

His winning numbers were 19-30-37-44-46.

The ticket was purchased at the 7-Eleven on 34951 Garfield Road in Fraser.

The $1.765 billion Powerball jackpot run that began on July 22 ended on Oct. 11, when a ticket purchased in California won the jackpot.

This jackpot was the second-largest lottery jackpot ever won.

During the jackpot run, Michigan Lottery players won more than $13 million in prizes, including six prizes of $1 million or more.

The next Powerball drawing will be on Saturday, and players will play for the $535 million jackpot.
