Someone in St. Louis just won $2 million in the Missouri Lottery. Is it you?
For the first time ever, a Missouri lottery player will win double the $1 million Powerball prize because he or she matched all five white-ball numbers and the Power Play option, the lottery announced Thursday morning.
The winning ticket was sold at Schnucks Market on Manchester Road in Kirkwood. The winning numbers are 6, 9, 11, 31 and 44.
"To the holder of this ticket, if you haven't done so already, please sign the back of it immediately and keep it in a safe place until you come see us to claim your prize," says May Scheve Reardon, the executive director of the lottery. "We're ready and excited to meet our newest millionaire."
Missouri's 388th Missouri Lottery-made millionaire has until June 2, 2014, to claim the prize.
