Winning $202 million Powerball ticket sold in suburban Des Moines

BONDURANT, Iowa — Iowa Lottery officials say someone bought a winning $202 million Powerball ticket at a convenience store in the suburban Des Moines city of Bondurant.

The ticket matched the six numbers drawn on Wednesday night. They are 13, 26, 39, 41, 42 and the Powerball number 10.

The prize is the second giant Powerball jackpot sold in Iowa this year.

A group of 20 Quaker Oats employees in Cedar Rapids shared a $241 million Powerball jackpot when their numbers came up in June.

Lottery officials planned a news conference Thursday morning at the Casey’s General Store where the latest jackpot ticket was purchased. There were no signs the winner had stepped forward.

Besides the jackpot winner, someone bought a ticket in the eastern Iowa city of Williamsburg that’s worth $1 million.
