A suburban resident is the winner of a cool $1 million after purchasing a ticket at a gas station in recent days.
The winning ticket was sold at a Citgo station in the community of Justice, a suburb located southwest of Chicago.
The ticket was sold in the Lotto Million 1 game, matching the six winning numbers of 5-11-16-23-25-39 in the July 10 drawing, according to the Lottery.
According to William Beahan, who owns the gas station, the winner has not yet come forward.
“I was out of the country when I got the call from my manager. We have no clue who the winner might be, but I have a strong feeling it was a regular Lotto player from our area,” he said. “Whoever it is, we’re very happy for the winner and look forward to celebrating with them.”
Illinois Lottery officials say the store will receive a $10,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket, which Beahan said he will invest in his business, give as a bonus to employees, and launch a gas promotion for customers.
