A Lottery winning ticket worth of $500k is sold out in rootstown

For the second time in less than a week, somebody in Northeast Ohio hit a $500,000 prize in the Lucky For Life lottery.

The most recent winner – who won the big prize money from the Saturday night drawing on Sept. 10 – purchased their winning ticket from a Giant Eagle store in Rootstown.

Ohio Lottery officials say it was an auto-pick ticket. The lucky numbers in the drawing were: 20, 23, 29, 30, 34 with Lucky Ball 15.

The winner matched five numbers – only missing the top prize by failing to match the Lucky Ball.

Just last week, a Lucky For Life lottery ticket sold at a Discount Drug Mart store in Elyria also hit $500,000 for the drawing held on Thursday, Sept. 8.
