Bronx candy shop sells winning lottery ticket — Man holding dollar bills roll, corruption payment, dirty money, financial fraud

Bronx store just sold a winning TAKE 5 ticket in evening draw

THE BRONX, N.Y. — A routine stop at a neighborhood candy shop has turned into a winning moment for one lucky lottery player in the Bronx.

A top-prize TAKE 5 ticket was sold at Unionport Candy on Unionport Road for the Saturday, March 28 evening drawing, according to the New York Lottery.

The ticket is worth $32,438.

TAKE 5 drawings are held twice daily, giving players multiple chances to land a win using numbers drawn from a pool of 1 through 39.

While not a jackpot-level prize, the win still represents a significant payout from what was likely a quick and ordinary purchase.

No details about the winner have been released.

For one Bronx player, though, this ticket turned a simple stop into a moment worth remembering.
