Lottery: Boynton Beach man gets half of $3 million jackpot
Hasan Zahangir, 46, of Boynton Beach, claimed his share of a $3 million jackpot in Tallahassee, the Florida Lottery announced today.
The drawing was held on April 22, and produced two jackpot winners. The other winning ticket, which has not been claimed, was purchased in Miami Beach.
Zahangir chose the one-time, lump-sum payment of $917,415. The winning ticket was purchased at Yogurt & Ice Cream, located at 10075 Yamato Road in Boca Raton.
“This shows if you do play, you really can win,” Zahangir said, according to the lottery. I guess the guy really has a flair for promotion, eh?
The retailer received a bonus incentive of $5,000 for selling the jackpot-winning ticket.
The winning numbers were: 06 – 09 – 18 – 36 – 46 - 53
