La Crescent store sells nearly $1 million lottery ticket
Somebody in La Crescent may have become a millionaire, just in time for Christmas.
Well, close to a millionaire.
The Minnesota Lottery says a ticket bought at the Southside Corner Convenience store off Highway 61 in La Crescent won the Gopher 5 jackpot on Wednesday night.
No one has come forward to claim the $932,716 prize, for matching all five numbers in the Gopher 5 drawing.
The store will get $5000 for selling a winning ticket.
