Winning Mega Millions Ticket Sold In Peru

As of late this morning, no one has stepped forward to claim a winning ticket sold at Hy-Vee in Peru.

State lottery officials say someone bought a quick-pick ticket at Hy-Vee that matched all five numbers but missed the Mega Ball in Tuesday night’s drawing.  The ticket is worth 250 thousand dollars.

The Peru Hy-Vee is no stranger to big lotto winners.  Cynthia Dennler of La Salle bought a winning Little Lotto ticket at the store in March of 2008.  That prize was $3.25 million dollars.
