GERMANTOWN, MD — If you bought lotto at Germantown Beer & Wine earlier this month, check your tickets. A Multi Match ticket bought there on July 5 is a $1 million winner, and so far no one has claimed it.

If you win a prize larger than $25,000 it has to be claimed at the Maryland Lottery Claims Center in Baltimore.

Another Montgomery County store sold a $1 million ticket in the last month. Brighton's Beer and Wine sold a ticket claimed by a man who is going as "Mr. Low Key." When he won his ticket, he went back into the store just to check that he wasn't reading it wrong.
