Another winning lottery ticket worth $1 million sold in Northwest Indiana

GRIFFITH — The Hoosier Lottery has created another millionaire in Northwest Indiana.

One day after an Illinois man claimed a $19.5 million Hoosier Lotto jackpot on a ticket he purchased in Munster, a winning MegaMillions ticket worth $1 million was sold in Griffith.

The lucky ticket for Friday's MegaMillions drawing was purchased at Luke #253, located at 1849 Cline Ave. in Griffith, according to lottery officials.

It matched the five white balls but missed the yellow Mega Ball to win the game's second-highest prize.

The winning numbers for the drawing were: 15, 30, 35, 38, 66 and Mega Ball 12.

Matching all six balls would have paid $256 million, records show.

The lottery recommends the person holding the winning ticket sign and complete the information on the back of the ticket, keep the ticket in a secure place and consider consulting a financial adviser.
