15 co-workers won $10 million Powerball jackpot
Published: July 7, 2005
A group of people who help families recover from floods and other disasters have won the ten (m) million-dollar Powerball jackpot.
Some of the winners are from Virginia.
Paddy Alter of Martinsburg, West Virginia works for the Federal Emergency Management Agency. He says 15 of his co-workers hold the winning ticket, which was purchased last week at a Sheetz convenience store in Charles Town, West Virginia.
West Virginia Lottery officials announced the winning ticket last week, but the winners haven’t officially come forward yet to claim the prize.
Alter says most of the winners work at the FEMA site at Mount Weather, Virginia, while a few work for FEMA in Winchester.
He says the workers plan to split the cash option of about five-point-eight million dollars.
