Christmas was a bit brighter for one lucky Maryland Lottery player this year thanks to a $540,000 Multi-Match win.
The News Stand at 6901 Security Blvd. in Windsor Mill sold the jackpot-winning ticket for the Dec. 25 drawing. The winning numbers are 11, 16, 21, 36, 37 and 41. The winner can choose between the estimated annuity of $540,000, paid in 25 equal installments, or an estimated $290,000 cash option (before taxes).
Lottery officials encourage the winner to sign the back of the ticket and keep it in a safe location. The winner has 182 days after the date of the drawing to claim the prize.
