Brooklyn, NY — Two New Yorkers are each $9,304.50 richer after winning top prizes in the Saturday TAKE 5 midday drawing, with winning tickets sold in Brooklyn and White Plains.

One of the tickets was sold at A & P Fried Chicken, located at 2106 Linden Boulevard in Brooklyn, and the other at American Petroleum, a gas station at 1169 Knollwood Road in White Plains, lottery officials confirmed.

The TAKE 5 game allows players to select five numbers from a field of 1 through 39. Drawings take place daily at 2:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., with prizes awarded based on the number of matching numbers drawn.

Both prize-winning tickets matched all five numbers in the May 17 midday drawing. Winners have up to one year from the date of the draw to claim their prize through the New York Lottery system.
