Local News in Brief : Store Owner Hits It Big
- Share via
A Glendora liquor store owner was the luckiest person to buy a Lotto ticket from his store last week--$10.3 million lucky.
A search for a Lotto multimillionaire ended when Anton Safar, 25, owner of H & H Liquor, showed up with the winning ticket.
Safar will share the $10.3-million prize with A. Keith Porchia, 50, a Glendora businessman who sold him the store 14 months ago. Safar and Porchia said they contributed three numbers each to the ticket and wound up matching all six numbers drawn last Wednesday night.
Their ticket was the only one to match the winning numbers: 7, 32, 44, 23, 36 and 9. The bonus number was 42.
The Glendora pair will split the checks of $412,000 per year after taxes for 20 years.
