A lucky winner in Ohio hit the Powerball’s $252.6 million jackpot in Wednesday night’s drawing, lottery officials said.
The winning ticket was sold at Get Go #3279 in Macedonia, though no one has come forward yet to claim the prize. The winner used the auto pick feature to choose their numbers.
The winning numbers were: 4-11-21-38-64; Powerball: 11. Power Play: 3x.
The prize’s cash option is $134.7 million. The winner has 180 days from the draw date to claim the prize.
