Michigan Lottery officials are searching for two lucky players who won big prizes over the weekend.
On Friday, Dec. 13, a ticket matched the five white balls drawn, 03-15-32-34-37, to win $25,000 a year for life from a Lucky for Life prize.
The winning ticket was purchased at Jerry’s Party Store at 28940 Warren Road in Westland.
This lucky winner can collect their prize as an annual payment of $25,000 for a minimum of 20 years or life or as a one-time payment of $390,000.
Then, on Saturday, Dec. 14, a player matched six Lotto 47 numbers drawn, 09-15-16-30-40-44, to win a $1.1 million jackpot.
This winning ticket was purchased at Liquor Land at 17934 East 9 Mile Road in Eastpointe. This is the third time in three weeks that a play has won this jackpot, according to lottery officials.
“Michigan Lottery players have been cashing in with big wins in recent weeks, and that lucky streak continued over the weekend with the 14th Lucky For Life, lifetime-prize win this year and a third Lotto 47 jackpot hit in three weeks,” said Lottery Commissioner Suzanna Shkreli. “Congratulations to the big winners!”
These two lucky winners should call the Michigan Lottery Player Relations division at 844-917-6325 to set up a time to claim their prizes. These tickets are valid for one year from the date of the drawing.
