NEW YORK, NY — A third-prize-winning Powerball ticket worth $50,000 was sold at a Manhattan retailer for the Feb. 5 drawing, the New York Lottery announced.

The ticket was purchased at MD S Alim, located at 460 Park Ave. The winning numbers were drawn from a field of one to 69, with the red Power Ball selected from a separate field of one to 26.

Powerball drawings take place three times a week—on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays—at 10:59 p.m. The next drawing will feature a growing jackpot as no grand prize winner was announced.

The New York Lottery remains the largest and most profitable lottery in North America, contributing $3.8 billion in fiscal year 2023-2024 to support public schools across the state.
