BEL AIR, MD – Maryland has a new millionaire after a Mega Millions ticket sold at a Wawa in Bel Air matched all five white balls in the Dec. 10 drawing, earning the lucky player a $1 million second-tier prize.

The winning ticket was purchased at Wawa #553, located at 709 Belair Road. For selling the ticket, the Harford County retailer will receive a $2,500 Lottery bonus. The winning numbers for the drawing were 12, 14, 26, 48, and 52, with a Mega Ball of 21.

This marks the second $1 million Mega Millions winner in Maryland since the jackpot roll began in September. The other winner, an Anne Arundel County resident, claimed a similar prize in October on a ticket purchased in Brooklyn Park.
