Powerball ticket worth $1M sold in Bucks

Camden County ticket splits $487k Jersey Cash 5 jackpot

Someone who bought a ticket at a Bucks County deli won $1 million in the most recent Powerball drawing.

The ticket matched all five white balls (3, 51, 52, 61 and 64) drawn Saturday, but missed the Powerball of 6.

The lucky ticket was bought at Hometown Deli, located at 842 Durham Road in Newtown, Pennsylvania Lottery officials said Tuesday.

The retailer gets a $5,000 bonus. The winner has one year to claim the prize.

No one won the $40 million top prize, so the jackpot for Wednesday's drawing rolls over to $50 million for the annuity or $31.8 million cash.

The drawing was the first since last Wednesday's record-setting jackpot.

That $1.6 billion prize, the largest lottery prize in history, fueled huge ticket sales and massive anticipation. Three tickets, sold in California, Florida and Tennessee, split the winnings.
