An Indianapolis couple is celebrating after splitting a $30 million jackpot from the Hoosier Lotto.

The couple, who have chosen to remain anonymous, claimed their prize at the Hoosier Lottery headquarters earlier this week.

The couple says they have been playing the lottery together for over 30 years and always split their winnings evenly.

They plan to use their prize money to pay off their debts, help their children and grandchildren, and make some charitable donations.

Lottery officials say that the couple chose to take the lump sum payment of $14.6 million after taxes. The winning ticket was purchased at a Kroger store in Indianapolis.

The odds of winning the jackpot in the Hoosier Lotto are approximately 1 in 9.38 million.

The Hoosier Lottery reminds players to always play responsibly and to seek help if they have a gambling problem.
