Towson Woman Wins $10,000 Playing Mega Millions

TOWSON, MD — A Towson lottery player had a five-figure win recently, according to the Maryland Lottery. The woman won $10,000 playing a "Quick-Pick" Mega Millions ticket, lottery officials said.

The Towson player put down $10 for the game.

In the quick pick, a line of numbers is randomly generated on the ticket. There were five lines of numbers, and the second line matched four of the winning numbers plus the Mega Ball number, according to lottery officials. That added up to a $10,000 prize.

The player purchased the ticket for the Jan. 2 drawing at the Timonium 7-Eleven at 9709 Beaver Dam Road, according to Maryland Lottery officials, who reported on the win this week.
