Check your lottery numbers. A winning Powerball ticket was sold in South Carolina

The search is underway for the person who recently bought a six-figure winning lottery ticket in the Midlands.

A $100,000 winning ticket was sold at a gas station/convenience store in Sumter, South Carolina Education Lottery officials said in a news release.

Lottery officials have not reported that the ticket holder has come forward to claim their prize.

The prize-winning ticket was one number away from matching all of those selected in Saturday night’s Powerball drawing, according to the release.

The ticket matched four of the five white balls, along with the red Powerball number, officials said.

The winning numbers from the drawing were 31, 39, 47, 51, 53 and Powerball: 6.

The ticket was sold at the Youngs store at 3120 U.S. 15, according to the release.

The winner has 180 days to claim their prize, according to lottery officials.

The winner will be allowed to retain some privacy, as South Carolina is one of eight states — along with Delaware, Kansas, Georgia, Maryland, North Dakota, Ohio and Texas — that allow lottery winners to remain anonymous.

“Sign the back of your ticket and put it in a safe location until you’re ready to come forward to claim the prize,” lottery officials said.

The odds of matching four white ball numbers and the red Powerball number are 913,129-to-1, according to the release.

The convenience store in Sumter will receive a commission of $1,000 when the ticket is turned in to lottery officials.

Because there was no jackpot winner in either Saturday or Monday’s drawings, the top prize in Wednesday night’s Powerball drawing has risen to $109 million.

The chances of winning the top prize in a Powerball drawing are 292,201,338-to-1, officials said.
