Maryland Lottery Searches For $50K Silver Spring Area Winner

SILVER SPRING, MD — The Maryland Lottery is searching for a player who purchased the lucky Bonus Match 5 ticket for the April 21 drawing at Fenton Citgo in Silver Spring.

The player won the $50,000 top prize in Friday night's drawing. The ticket matched the five winning numbers of 1, 25, 29, 36 and 38; the Bonus Ball was 4.

Lottery officials urge the winner to sign the back of the ticket and put it in a safe place. The winner has 182 days to claim the prize and must come in person to Lottery headquarters at 1800 Washington Blvd. in Baltimore.

Bonus Match 5 drawings take place seven days a week. Players select five numbers ranging from 1 to 39. The Bonus Ball drawn from the remaining 34 numbers provides extra chances to win. Your ticket is a winner if you match five, four or three of the original five winning numbers selected in the drawing. If you match the Bonus Ball number, you only need to match four, three or two of your original numbers to win.
