Dallas Woman Claims $202M Powerball Prize Sold In St. Louis

A Dallas, Texas woman has claimed a $202.6 million Powerball jackpot prize after buying the winning ticket at a St. Louis newsstand.

Missouri Lottery officials said Monday that Marilyn Boldon came forward after buying the prize ticket at Gateway Newstand in Union Station. The store's owner will receive $50,000 for selling the winning ticket.

Boldon can choose to either take a lump sum of roughly $126.5 million before taxes or instead opt for 30 smaller, annual payments.

Missouri has sold 30 Powerball-winning tickets, second only to Indiana among the 44 states that participate in the national lottery game.
