Jackpot worth $180,000 shared by winning ticket in Monongahela

Six winning Treasure Hunt tickets from the Sunday drawing will split a jackpot prize of $180,000. Four winning tickets were sold by Lottery retailers in Luzerne, Allegheny, Erie and Washington counties, and two tickets were sold to online players.

Each jackpot-winning ticket matched all five numbers drawn, 5-11-13-25-27, for individual prizes of $30,000, less applicable withholding. These are the lottery retailer locations that sold the four winning tickets:

• Gerrity’s Supermarket, 552 Union St., Pringle Boro, Luzerne County.

• Sheetz, 9002 University Boulevard, Moon Township, Allegheny County.

• Country Fair, 8080 Peach St., Summit Township, Erie County.

• Dierken’s Pharmacy, 100 East Main St., Monongahela, Washington County.

More than 59,700 other Treasure Hunt tickets won prizes in the drawing. Players should check every ticket, every time.

Winners are not known until prizes are claimed and tickets are validated. Treasure Hunt winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes. Winning tickets purchased at a Lottery retailer should immediately be signed on the back. Online winnings automatically appear in a player’s account after the claim has been processed. Players may visit palottery.com for more information about how to file a claim.
