A lottery ticket worth $730,000 was sold in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, Tuesday.
The Pennsylvania Lottery announced Wednesday that a Match 6 Lotto ticket that matched all six winning numbers — 4-14-17-19-20-36 — was sold at the ShopRite of Drexeline on State Road in Upper Darby Township. The store will earn a $5,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
The winner of the ticket won't be known until they claim the prize. Winners of the Pennsylvania Lottery Match 6 Lotto have one year from the drawing date to claim it.
If you purchased a winning ticket at a retail store, the Pennsylvania Lottery says you should immediately sign the back of it. Online winnings will automatically appear in a player's account after the claim has been processed.
More than 29,200 Match 6 Lotto tickets also won prizes during the drawing.
