ATLANTA - The jackpot in the multistate Mega Millions lottery drawing grew to $189 million Saturday.
None of the tickets sold for Friday night's $162 million drawing matched all five lotto numbers and the Mega Ball. The next
drawing will be Tuesday.
There were 12 second-prize winners from Friday night's drawing, matching all five lotto numbers but not the Mega Ball number
to win $250,000 apiece. One of those tickets was sold in Illinois - at a food store in the Chicago suburb of Arlington Heights.
Also, 54 players matched four of the five lotto numbers, plus the Mega Ball number. Those tickets, three of which were sold
in Illinois, are each worth $10,000.
The winning numbers from Friday night's drawing were: one, 18, 31, 46 and 52. The Mega Ball number was 37.
