Sacramento-Area Store Sells $60 Million Winning Powerball Ticket

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) _ A lottery player in Sacramento County has hit the jackpot in Saturday night's $60 million Powerball drawing.

California Lottery spokesman Alex Traverso says the winning ticket, which successfully matched the numbers 3, 8, 25, 47, 30 and the Powerball number 13, was sold at Tooley Oil in McClellan Park, about 12 miles northeast of the capital.

The store is also a big winner, as it will receive a $300,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.

Two weeks ago a Milpitas player hit the massive $425 million Powerball jackpot, but the winner has yet to come forward.

In December, one of two winning Mega Millions tickets was sold at a small San Jose gift shop for a jackpot of $648 million. The other was sold in Georgia.
