Three Southern California lottery players who bought tickets just miles apart are celebrating big wins.
The biggest of the recent wins was a Scratchers ticket worth $10 million sold at South Pacific Market in San Pedro. That lucky winner, Louis Farillas, opted for the 25-year annual payments.
Lottery officials said he purchased the Scratcher ticket 10 Million Dollar Titanium Black.
“Whether he knew it immediately or not, Louis Farillas walked away a very rich man, eventually scratching his way to the game’s top prize of $10 million,” the California Lottery said in a news release.
Farillas chose to receive $400,000 for the next 25 years.
South Pacific Market will receive a $50,000 bonus for selling that winning ticket.
The deadline is tonight for the winner to claim the prize. As reported on the NBC4 News on Monday, April 25, 2022.
Just a few miles away from where that lucky ticket was purchased, Lázaro Macías hit it big. He won $2 million with an Instant Prize Crossword Scratcher tickets purchased at Bibo Liquor & Market in Westminster.
Finally, César Escamilla won $1 million after he purchased the Power 10’s Scratcher ticket at the 7-Eleven located at 5609 West Sunset Blvd, in Los Angeles. That store will receive $5,000 for selling the winning ticket.
