PITTSBURGH, PA - It's been a good week to play the lottery around Pittsburgh. A day after a $5 million winning Mega Millions ticket was sold at the Giant Eagle supermarket in McCandless Pennsylvania Lottery officials announced a $2 million Powerball ticket was sold at a Westmoreland County doughnut shop.

The winning ticket was sold at Donut Connection in New Kensington. The shop gets a $10,000 bonus for selling the winner.

The ticket matched five of the five white balls drawn, 07-10-20-44-57, but not the red Powerball 03 to win $2 million, less applicable withholding. Without the $1 Power Play option, the ticket would havebeen worth $1 million. The Power Play multiplier drawn was two.
