Brooklyn player wins big with lottery ticket

Brooklyn store sells $17K winning Take 5 ticket in midday lottery drawing

BROOKLYN, NY — One lucky New Yorker just scored a $17,727.50 payday after purchasing a top-prize Take 5 ticket at a Brooklyn convenience store for Monday’s midday drawing.

The winning ticket was sold at Patel Enterprises, located at 1370 Pennsylvania Avenue in Brooklyn, according to officials with the New York Lottery.

The prize came from the Take 5 Midday draw, which takes place every day at 2:30 p.m. Winning numbers are selected from a pool of one through 39. Players who match all five numbers win the top prize, which varies depending on ticket sales and the number of winners.

Monday’s midday drawing awarded just one top-prize winner statewide, and no additional winners at that prize tier were announced. The winner has not yet been identified.

Players have up to one year from the date of the drawing to claim their prize.

The New York Lottery continues to generate billions in revenue, contributing $3.6 billion to support public education in the state for the 2024–2025 fiscal year.
