MANCHESTER,N.H.- Someone in New Hampshire is starting their holiday off week off a million dollars richer.

Lottery officials say a ticket sold for Saturday night’s drawing worth a million dollars was sold for at the Common Man Roadside.

Officials note the numbers selected for Saturday’s drawing were 4, 5, 28, 52 and 69, with a Powerball number of 20, but the player was unable to match the Powerball and as a result was awarded a $1 million prize.

The ticket was one of eight $1 million winners drawn across the country.

With no winner Saturday, Lottery officials estimate that tonight’s drawing is now $1.6 billion, which is also the fourth largest in Powerball history and the fifth largest among U.S. lottery jackpots.
