One jackpot-winning Pennsylvania Lottery Cash 5 ticket worth $1 million from the Feb. 27 drawing was sold at the Giant Eagle in West Newton, Westmoreland County, a lottery spokesperson said.

The ticket correctly matched all five balls drawn, 04-08-20-27-37, to win $1 million, less withholding tax. The retailer will receive a $5,000 bonus for selling this winning ticket.

Cash 5 winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes. Prizes must be claimed and tickets validated before winners can be identified.

More than 84,500 other Cash 5 tickets won prizes of various amounts in the drawing, the spokesperson said.
