ALVIN, Texas - Some lucky person who purchased a lottery ticket at an Alvin supermarket can now claim to be a multi-millionaire.
The winning Lotto Texas ticket that matched all six numbers was bought at an H-E-B store on 207 East South Street and is worth $76 million.
Because the buyer selected the cash option for the ticket, he or she will receive an approximately lump sum payment of $48 million before income tax is accounted for.
The H-E-B store will receive approximately $500,000 for selling the winning ticket, but the company's legal department must determine how the winnings can be distributed.
The winning numbers for the Oct. 21 Lotto Texas drawing were 9-20-42-51-53-27.
