Saturday night Lotto winner bags €1 million prize

A lucky Lotto player won big on last night's Lotto Plus 1 draw.

The winner bought the lucky ticket at the Centra Store on St Mary’s Road, Newcastle West, Co Limerick and has won €1 million.

Last night’s winning Lotto Plus 1 numbers were: 11, 14, 16, 22, 26, 43 and the bonus ball was 30.

A delighted manager of the winning shop, Margaret Ryan, said: “There’s great excitement in Newcastle West this morning and so many of our customers have been popping in checking their tickets and everyone is wondering who the winner is. Hopefully it is one of our regulars and there is a millionaire among us! We are located in the middle of the town so get a lot of passing trade as well as a lot off our own customers so it’s impossible to tell”.

A National Lottery spokesperson said today: “This is amazing news for a lucky Lotto player in Limerick and we are looking forward to meeting this person or persons soon in the Winner’s Room. We advise the ticket holder to sign the back of the ticket and contact our prize claims team on 01 836 4444 and we will make arrangements for you to come to the National Lottery to get your prize”.

Despite this big win, there was no winner of the mega Lotto jackpot  of €7,991,929  which now rolls to an estimated €8.5 million for next Wednesday’s draw (13th February).
