MIDDLETOWN, PA — A Pennsylvania Lottery player in Westmoreland County struck it big on Monday, winning a $600,000 Cash 5 with Quick Cash jackpot.

The winning ticket, sold at The Little Store on 7th Street Road in New Kensington, matched all five numbers—7, 16, 18, 37, and 38. The retailer will receive a $5,000 bonus for selling the jackpot-winning ticket.

More than 12,300 other Cash 5 with Quick Cash tickets also won prizes in the drawing. Lottery officials urge players to check their tickets carefully, as lower-tier prizes can be claimed at any authorized retailer.

The jackpot prize must be claimed within one year of the drawing date. Winners should contact a Pennsylvania Lottery office or call 1-800-692-7481 for further instructions.
