SJ Lottery Ticket Cashes Huge Prize

A Powerball ticket purchased in San Jose over the weekend matched five numbers in Saturday's draw but missed the Powerball number.

The consolation prize isn't too bad — $2.3 million.

The ticket was sold at a 7-Eleven at 2440 Almaden Expressway. 

A second ticket with the same matching numbers was sold in Taft, in Kern County, also at a 7-Eleven. 

The jackpot is now up to $590 million.
