Two Winning Tickets Split $500,000 Pennsylvania Lottery Cash 5 Jackpot

4/6/2020
Middletown, PA – Two winning tickets split a Pennsylvania Lottery Cash 5 jackpot worth $500,000 from the Friday, April 3 drawing. Each ticket matched all five balls drawn, 04-09-32-34-38, to win $250,000 each, less withholding.
 
Congratulations to the following Lottery retailers who each receive a $500 bonus for selling the winning tickets that split the jackpot:
  • Turkey Hill, 800 Alter St., Hazelton, Luzerne County; and
  • Top Star Express, 120 W. 3rd St., Mount Carmel, Northumberland County.
