Lucky person hasn't stepped forward; Record dividend to be returned

A winning Weekly Grand jackpot lottery ticket was sold in Kootenai County on Saturday night.

Idaho Lottery officials said the winner hadn't stepped forward as of Monday afternoon.

The ticket is worth $1,000 each week for a year. The winning numbers were 1, 6, 25, 30 and 32.

Weekly Grand is only played in Idaho. Players who match all five numbers with the jackpot.

Meanwhile, for the second time in as many draws, Idaho has a million dollar winning Powerball ticket.

The Idaho Lottery confirmed that at least one winning ticket matched all five of the first numbers from Saturday night's $97.8 million Powerball draw and is worth $1 million.

That winning ticket was sold at a retailer in Oneida County along the Idaho-Utah border. The winning numbers were 2, 8, 22, 35 and 37 and the Powerball was 6.

"This is a remarkable run of good luck for our players," said Jeff Anderson, Idaho Lottery director. "We are encouraging everyone who played Powerball and Weekly Grand for (Saturday) night's draws to check their tickets carefully for winners."

Including the million dollar winning ticket, there were nearly 4,100 winning Powerball tickets in Idaho from Saturday night's draw. With no jackpot winner, the estimated Powerball jackpot for Wednesday night is $116 million.

Last Wednesday, Idaho had also had a $1 million Powerball winner that was claimed by Audrey and David Eckert from Boise on Friday.

The Idaho Lottery encourages all players to sign the back of their tickets prior to presenting them for payment.

Saturday night's million dollar Powerball winner and Weekly Grand jackpot winner have 180 days to claim their prize from Idaho Lottery headquarters.
