$100K Winning PA Lottery Ticket Purchased In Pittsburgh Expiring Soon
Someone is about to miss out on a large jackpot-winning Pennsylvania Lottery ticket because they haven't claimed their winnings.
PITTSBURGH, PA — Someone bought a Pennsylvania Lottery Powerball ticket in Oakland last year and it ended up winning the purchaser $100,000.
The problem is that no one has stepped forward to claim their winnings and the ticket is now approaching its expiration date, lottery officials said.
The ticket for the Oct. 4 2023 drawing, sold at the Rite Aid on Atwood Street, matched four of the white balls drawn (9-35-54-63-64) and the red Powerball to win the $100,000 prize.
