The winning ticket from the $267 million Mega Millions drawing Tuesday night was sold in this northwest Ohio town, an Ohio
Lottery spokeswoman said.
The ticket was purchased at Lyons Main Stop, said Marie Kilbane, spokeswoman for the Ohio Lottery. No one answered the phone
at the store early Wednesday.
Lyons is 26 miles west of Toledo, near the Ohio-Michigan line.
Lottery officials planned a news conference Wednesday, Kilbane said.
The winning numbers from Tuesday night's drawing were: 2, 4, 35, 36 and 48. The Mega Ball number was 22.
In addition to the grand prize winner, 22 tickets matched all five numbers but not the Mega Ball number. The winners will
receive second prizes of $250,000 each.
Another 134 tickets matched four numbers, plus the Mega Ball number _ good for third prizes of $10,000 each.
