Silver Spring, Md. (DG) – Excitement is sweeping in Montgomery County as a Maryland Lottery player claims a $4 million prize from Tuesday night’s Mega Millions drawing. The winning ticket was sold at the Giant Foods store on New Hampshire Avenue, earning the retailer a $2,500 bonus.
The March 10th drawing’s numbers were 16, 21, 30, 35, and 65, with a Mega Ball of 7. The Maryland winner matched all five main numbers but missed the Mega Ball. With an automatic X4 multiplier, the prize jumped from $1 million to $4 million. Someone who purchased a lottery ticket in Illinois hit the Mega Millions jackpot, taking home $533 million.
