Winning Lotto ticket sold in Ohio

A ticket with all six numbers in tonight’s multi-state Mega Millions draw was sold in Ohio and is worth $15 million, California Lottery officials announced.

Four tickets – one each sold in Illinois, Massachusetts, Ohio and Virginia – had five numbers, but didn’t have the Mega number and are each worth $250,000.

The numbers drawn tonight were 13, 24, 39, 51, 52 and the Mega number was 44.

The drawing was the second since the last time a ticket with all six numbers was sold. A ticket sold in Maryland for last Tuesday’s draw had all six numbers and was worth $24 million.

Tickets with all six numbers have been sold in three of the last six draws. A ticket sold in Georgia for the Aug. 29 draw had all six numbers and was worth $132 million.

The odds of matching all five numbers and the Mega number is 1 in 175,711,536, according to the Mega Millions Web site.

The jackpot for Friday’s draw will be $12 million.

Besides California, the Mega Millions game is played in Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Texas, Virginia and Washington.
