AUBURN, Wash.—A single winning ticket for a $754.6 million Powerball jackpot was sold in a Seattle suburb.
The winning numbers drawn Monday night were 05, 11, 22, 23, 69, and the Powerball 07.
The ticket was sold in Auburn, Washington, about 30 miles south of Seattle, KOMO-TV reported Tuesday. Washington’s lottery officials were expected to release further information later Tuesday, including details of the outlet that sold the ticket.
Powerball officials said in a statement early Tuesday that a single ticket matched all six numbers and that ticket sales pushed the jackpot higher than an earlier $747 million estimate.
The full jackpot is for a winner opting for an annuity distributed in one immediate but partial payout followed by additional payments over 29 years that increase by 5 percent annually. The winner also can opt for a one-time cash payment of $407.2 million….
