There has been another rollover in the grand prize for the multistate Mega Millions lottery -- to $171 million.
The rollover occurred because no player matched all the winning numbers from Tuesday night's drawing.
The next Mega Millions drawing will be Friday night.
Although there was no grand prize winner, 13 players won second prizes of $250,000 apiece. Two of those tickets were sold
in Michigan. Another 61 players, including five who bought a ticket in Michigan, won third prizes of $10,000.
The winning numbers from Tuesday night's drawing were: one, 27, 28, 35 and 40. The Mega Ball number was six.
