Jackpot-winning lottery ticket sold in Philly expires soon

Someone bought a lottery ticket worth $50,000 in Northeast Philadelphia last year - and the winner still hasn't claimed the prize.

Pennsylvania Lottery officials said the Quinto ticket that won in the May 8, 2014, evening drawing was sold at the Sunoco A-Plus Express located at 3398 Aramingo Ave.

The ticket matched all five numbers drawn - 2, 8, 4, 0 and 4 - to win the $50,000 jackpot.

Winners have one year from the drawing date to claim their prizes.

But nearly a year later, the Northeast Philadelphia ticket-holder still hasn't stepped forward, the lottery said.

The ticket-holder must file a claim by next Friday, May 8.

Unclaimed prizes remain in the lottery's funds.

The Quinto game is now called Pick 5 as part of a rebranding that occurred earlier this year. The winning 2014 ticket will have the Quinto name on it.
