South Jersey lottery ticket splits $1.2M jackpot

A ticket sold at a Camden County gas station split a nearly $1.2 million Jersey Cash 5 jackpot over the weekend.

The winning tickets matched all five numbers drawn in Sunday's game: 2, 3, 24, 27 and 41.

The lucky South Jersey ticket was sold at the Mat Petroleum Corp. located at 5420 Route 38 in Pennsauken, New Jersey Lottery officials said.

That ticket and one sold at another gas station in Glen Rock, Bergen County, will share the $1,186,296 jackpot.

Each winning ticket is worth $593,148.

The retailers each get a $2,000 bonus.
