Ohio ticket worth $261.6M Powerball jackpot

ORLANDO, Fla.

The Ohio Lottery says the only winning ticket matching all six numbers in Wednesday night's drawing was sold at a store in Sunbury, about 20 miles north of Columbus in central Ohio.

Lottery officials planned to present the Hub Carry Out & Deli with a check for $100,000 Thursday morning for selling the winning ticket. Clerk Rose Ong says it's a "wonderful" feeling and says the store doesn't know who the winner is.

The drawing's winning numbers were: 4-9-14-39-43. The Powerball was 38.

Ohio retailers sold their very first Powerball tickets April 16.

Powerball is played in 42 states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
