HOUSTON — Earlier this month, someone bought a Powerball ticket in Houston that won $2 million. And now, lottery officials say that winner has claimed the prize.
The ticket was for the drawing on Feb. 6.
It was bought with a quick pick at the H-E-B along Bellaire Boulevard near Highway 6 and matched all five white ball numbers, but missed the red Powerball number.
The numbers on the Feb. 6 drawing were 5, 11, 22, 23, 69 and the Powerball was 7.
It was the same drawing that someone in Washington state matched all six numbers, winning the $754.6 million jackpot.
