Macomb County Woman Wins $1.7M Playing Fast Cast Jackpot

MACOMB COUNTY, MI — A Macomb County woman won $1.7 million playing the Michigan Lottery's Lucky 7’s Fast Cash jackpot, officials said.

The lucky 37-year-old player bought her winning ticket at Puritan Liquor Stop, located at 16046 Puritan Avenue in Detroit. She typically plays a different game from the state's lottery, but decided to try the Lucky 7’s, and it paid off.

"I usually play the Wild Time Fast Cash games but decided on the Lucky 7’s game this time," the player said. "When I looked the ticket over and saw I’d won the jackpot, I was very excited! It was a great feeling."

Officials did not specify if the winner took her earnings in one lump sum or in annual payments, but they did say with her winnings that she plans to pay bills and then save what's left over.
