A lucky Bronx resident is $32,968 richer after purchasing a top-prize winning TAKE 5 ticket at 3 Way Deli Grocery Corp, located at 1106 E 216th St., in the Bronx.
The New York Lottery confirmed the win following the Oct. 31 evening drawing, where the winning ticket matched all five numbers drawn from a field of one through 39.
This substantial win marks another local boost for lottery players in the Bronx. The TAKE 5 game, a favorite among New Yorkers, holds drawings twice daily at 2:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. Winners have up to a year to claim their prize from the drawing date, ensuring ample time for lucky ticket holders to come forward.
The New York Lottery, North America’s largest and most profitable lottery system, contributed $3.8 billion to New York State public schools in the 2023-2024 fiscal year.
