JONESVILLE, MI (WTVB) – A Hillsdale County man has won a $115,000 Fantasy 5 jackpot from the Michigan Lottery.
68-year-old Stephen Hammel of Jonesville matched the Fantasy 5 numbers in the July 24 drawing to win the big prize.
The winning numbers were 04-16-22-30-38. He bought his winning ticket at J&B Liquor on Reading Avenue in Jonesville.
Hammel said, “I usually play Fantasy 5 a couple times a week. The day after the drawing, I took my ticket to the store to check it and I got a message to file a claim. I asked the manager to check it and when he got the same message, I looked up the winning numbers online. When I saw I had matched them all, I was in complete shock!”
Hammel visited Lottery headquarters recently to claim the big prize. With his winnings, he plans to complete home improvements and save the remainder.
