Winning Mega Millions ticket sold in N.J.

    The person who bought a winning Mega Millions lottery ticket sold in New Jersey has yet to claim the prize.

    The winner matched all six numbers in Friday’s drawing and will split the estimated $190 million jackpot with the holder of another winning ticket bought in Virginia.

     

    The winning ticket was sold at the Mart at the Lukoil gas station in Tinton Falls, which will receive a $30,000 bonus.
