An unnamed Stratford resident is $40,000 richer this week after claiming a winning lottery ticket purchased in Bridgeport, the Connecticut Lottery announced. 

On Friday, the person claimed a winning 200X ticket that was bought at Pam's Variety Store on Madison Avenue.

The Connecticut Lottery publishes partial winner information as public record, according to officials.

The game, which costs $20 per ticket, began in February, and as of Monday, two grand prizes of $1,000,000 remained unclaimed.
