ATLANTA A single winning ticket sold in North Bend, Washington, has won a 55 (m) million dollar jackpot in the Mega Millions
lottery.
The winning numbers from tonight's drawing were: 6, 18, 20, 28 and 38. The Mega Ball number was 37.
Washington is one of a dozen states that participate in the Mega Millions game.
In addition to the grand prize winner, six tickets -- including one sold in Washington -- matched all five numbers but not
the Mega Ball number. They will receive second-place prizes of 250-thousand dollars.
Another 19 tickets -- again, one of them sold in Washington -- matched four numbers, plus the Mega Ball number. Those are
good for third-place prizes of 10-thousand dollars.
The next drawing will be Friday and the jackpot will be 12 (m) million dollars.
