Williamston man wins $1 million top prize from $10 lottery ticket

A Williamston man won a $1 million top prize on Oct. 30 after purchasing a $10 scratch-off from Williamston Family Fare on West Main Street. Mark Sanderson, 54, of Williamston, arrived at lottery headquarters Thursday to claim his prize, a media release said. Sanderson was given a decision on how to receive his prize; as an annuity of $50,000 over 20 years or a lump sum of $600,000. He chose the latter, and after required tax withholdings, he took home $432,063. Sanderson’s win comes after the “50X The Cash” game debuted in January, including 12 top prizes of $1 million, with nine still remaining to be claimed.
