A $10 scratch-off ticket turned into a $3 million payday for a Long Island lottery player.
The winning Bonus Stars ticket was purchased at Torres Deli & Grocery, 84A Broadway in Freeport, according to the New York Lottery. Officials announced the big win on Monday, August 31.
The Ronald Stuckey Revocable Trust of Freeport claimed the game’s top $3 million prize. Instead of taking the full prize over time, those controlling the trust chose the $1,334,553 immediate cash payout.
