$150K Jackpot Winner In Union County
The business the ticket was sold at also gets a bonus.
ELIZABETH, NJ — A $150,000 jackpot on the "Jersey Cash 5" New Jersey Lottery game was hit over the weekend by a player in Union County.
On Sunday, the winning numbers were traced back to a ticket sold by Lukoil at 211 South Broad St. in Elizabeth. The gas station will also receive a $2,000 bonus.
The Union County winner marked the third consecutive drawing that had a winner over the weekend. Two players shared a jackpot of more than $1 million on Friday won on tickets sold in Monmouth and Ocean Counties. On Saturday, a Sussex County player won another $150,000 jackpot from a ticket sold by a Quick Chek in Stanhope.
