A new pay day feeling coming to a few people in Maryland.
LANHAM, Md. — A few people in Maryland are waking up to a new kind of pay day feeling. After Wednesday’s drawing, one person in Prince George’s County won $1 million with a Powerball ticket.
The ticket was sold at the 7-Eleven store at 7730 Finns Lane in Lanham, in Prince George’s County.
Two other winning tickets were also sold in Maryland, both worth $50,000. One was sold at Klein’s Shoprite at 223 North Main Street in Bel Air in Harford County and at American Legion Post 238, 6268 Brandywine Road in Hughesville, Charles County.
