$1 Million Winning Lottery Ticket Sold In Allegheny County

HARRISBURG, PA —The Cash4Life multi-state game has awarded its 11th $1 million prize in Pennsylvania since the Pennsylvania Lottery joined the game in April 2015.

The winning-ticket worth $1,000 a week for life, or $1 million cash, was sold for the Jan. 13 drawing at the Giant Eagle in McIntyre Square on McKnight Road in Ross. The supermarket gets a $5,000 bonus for selling the ticket.

The ticket correctly matched all five balls drawn, 05-12-13-14-26, but not the green Cash Ball, 4, to win an annuity prize valued at $52,000 a year for life, or a cash prize of $1 million, less applicable tax withholding.

More than 7,000 other Cash4Life tickets in Pennsylvania also won prizes in the drawing. Players should check every ticket, every time. Lower-tier prizes may be claimed at a lottery retailer.

In Pennsylvania, since 2015 Cash4Life has generated more than $143 million in sales and players have won more than $53.5 million in prizes. Cash4Life is also played in surrounding states, including New York, New Jersey, Maryland and Virginia.

Prizes must be claimed and tickets validated before winners can be identified. Cash4Life® winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes.

The holder of any annuity prize-winning ticket should immediately sign the back of the ticket and call file a winnings claim with the lottery.
