WILMINGTON — A winning $20 scratch-off ticket bought in the Port City has one local $2 million richer.
Steven Milligan of Wilmington purchased a Riches ticket from the Gas Center on Market Street and collected his $2 million win Thursday at the lottery headquarters.
Milligan chose to receive the prize as a lump-sum of $1.2 million rather than the annuity of $100,000 over 20 years. After state and federal taxes, he will receive $855,006.
The $2,000,000 Riches game debuted in May with four $2 million top prizes and eight $100,000 prizes. Two $2 million prizes and four $100,000 prizes remain to be claimed.
