A 74-year-old Michigan man has seen a longstanding prediction come true after winning a $1.5 million (£1.11 million) prize in the Michigan Lottery's Lotto 47 Double Play drawing.
The Oakland County man told Michigan Lottery officials he purchased his winning ticket for the 17 June drawing from Zetouna Liquor Fine Wine on Rochester Road in Rochester Hills. He matched all six Lotto 47 Double Play numbers — 34, 35, 41, 44, 45 and 47 — to claim the $1.5 million (£1.11 million) prize.
