A Union County lottery player has won a substantial $50,000 third-tier prize in the Powerball jackpot.
This significant win comes from the recent December 30th drawing, which saw an astounding $842.4 million jackpot.
The winning ticket, which successfully matched four of the five white balls and the Powerball, was sold at AJ Seabra's, located at 2 Liberty Avenue in Hillside.
This local store has now gained attention as the source of this lucky ticket, adding excitement to the community.
In addition to the regular Powerball draw, there was a Double Play drawing, an extra chance for players who opted in for this feature on their tickets.
This additional drawing is part of the Powerball game's efforts to provide more opportunities for players to win.
The New Jersey Lottery reminds players to check their tickets and the latest drawing results.
