WHITE OAK, Pa. — A winning scratch-off lottery ticket worth $3 million was sold in Allegheny County!

The ticket, called $3,000,000 Golden Ticket, was sold at Nic’s Tobacco on Lincoln Way in White Oak.

The store will receive a $10,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.

The Pennsylvania Lottery says scratch-offs are distributed at random, so the lottery and retailers do not know where the tickets will be sold until the prize is claimed.
