PIERRE - Someone in South Dakota bought a Powerball ticket for
last Saturday's drawing that is worth $200,000.
The winner got the first five numbers right and has 6 months
to collect the money.
The ticket should be signed and put in a safe place until it
can be verified at a state lottery office in Pierre or Sioux Falls,
said Norm Lingle, state lottery director. Those offices were closed
Monday in observance of Native Americans' Day.
Two other second-prize tickets worth $200,000 each were sold
in Minnesota and Indiana.
No one matched all six numbers in Saturday's Powerball
drawing, and the estimated jackpot on Wednesday night will be $20
million.
