Powerball player wins $1M with ticket sold in Chicago

CHICAGO - An Illinois Powerball player became a millionaire after Wednesday night's drawing.

The lucky person, who bought the Powerball ticket at UnCork It, 393 East Illinois St. in Chicago, matched all five numbers in the drawing. The winning numbers were: 4-13-35-61-69. The jackpot was an estimated $386 million.

The winner becomes the seventh Illinois Lottery player this year to receive a prize of $1 million or more playing Powerball. In total, more than 20,000 winning tickets were sold in Wednesday night's Powerball drawing.

"This is so cool, and very exciting," said Pete Stellas, owner of UnCork It. "We’ve been selling Illinois Lottery tickets since they were available in 1974. I can’t wait to call my brother and tell him we sold a winning $1 million Powerball ticket here."
