Dartmouth Nurse Wins $1 Million In Mega Millions

DARTMOUTH, MA — A Darmouth nurse who recently lost out on a vacation to celebrate her 40th birthday is one of two million-dollar winner from Massachusetts in Tuesday night's Mega Millions drawing.

Jennifer Santo and her husband Manuel picked up the winnings at the Lottery headquarters in Braintree Wednesday. The couple recently booked a birthday vacation, but were turned away at the airport because Manuel's passport was less than three months away. They had to cancel their non-refundable trip.

Santo bought the ticket at a Cumberland Farms on Main Street in Bridgewater. The store will receive a $10,000 bonus.

The other $1 million prize has not been claimed. It was sold in Wilmington Nouria, which recently sold another million-dollar winning ticket.
