MINSTER, Ohio - Ohio has two quarter-million-dollar winners from the Mega Millions drawing.
The Ohio Lottery says tickets sold at a gas station in Minster in western Ohio and a supermarket in East Cleveland each matched the five regular numbers on Friday but missed the Mega Ball number.
That means each ticket is good for a $250,000 prize in the multistate lottery game.
Nationwide, no one had all the winning numbers to take the jackpot. The top prize rises to an estimated $51 million for the next drawing, on Tuesday.
The winning numbers were: three, four, 18, 29 and 50. The Mega Ball was 20, and the Megaplier was four.
