Ferris resident hits million dollar Mega prize

A Ferris resident recently claimed a second-tier Mega Millions prize worth $1 million. The winner, who has elected to remain anonymous, chose their numbers and played the game for the draw on August 31.  The ticket was purchased at Jaxx Fuel #8, located on North Highway 45, in Ferris. The winner was a Quick Pick that matched all five of the numbers drawn (8-14-31-58-68), just not the Mega. To win the Mega Millions jackpot, players must match all six numbers drawn including the Mega Ball.
