Lower Burrell supermarket sells jackpot-winning Cash 5 lottery ticket
Friday the 13th was a lucky day for a lottery player at Lower Burrell’s Community Supermarket.
A jackpot-winning Cash 5 with Quick Cash ticket sold there for Friday’s drawing matched all five balls drawn — 19, 23, 30, 31, 41 — to win about $404,000, less withholding, the Pennsylvania Lottery announced Monday.
Community Supermarket in the Hillcrest shopping plaza will get a $500 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
The winner will have to claim the prize within a year of the drawing date.
