Berlin Resident Hits It Big In Powerball

BERLIN, CT — An East Berlin resident didn't completely hit the Powerball jackpot this week, but it is doubtful the person is complaining.

That's because, while the individual isn't a multi-millionaire after picking a good sequence of numbers, the bank account grew significantly larger this week.

According to the Connecticut Lottery Corp., a $250,000 Powerball ticket was purchased by a local resident in town on Tuesday, Sept. 17.

The ticket was sold by Berlin Convenience & Deli at 831 Mills St.

Powerball is a multi-state drawing game characterized by massive jackpots that have exceeded $1 billion. The current jackpot is about $195 million.
