$450,000 Lottery Ticket Sold At Glenview Gas Station
Someone matched all five numbers on Tuesday evening's "Lucky Day Lotto" drawing.
GLENVIEW, IL — Someone who bought a lottery ticket in Glenview for Tuesday's drawing is due a six-figure payday after a $450,000 winning "Lucky Day Lotto" ticket was purchased at the Amoco at 1533 N. Waukegan Road, according to the Illinois Lottery.
The ticket matched all five numbers from the drawing — 12, 15, 21, 26 and 29 — for the June 4 evening drawing, according to the news release. For its sale of the winning ticket, the Amoco station will receive a $4,500 bonus, 1 percent of the value of the prize.
Lottery officials recommended the winner sign the back of the ticket and keep it in a safe place until they are able to visit one of the lottery's prize centers, which include locations in Des Plaines and Chicago, within a year of the drawing date.
