PAWTUCKET, R.I. (WPRI) -- While Powerball officials said the record jackpot has been won, four tickets in Massachusetts each won a million dollars, for partly matching Wednesday night's number.
In Rhode Island, there were several $10,000 winners, and one $40,000 prize won. The Ocean State sold more than $3 million worth of Powerball tickets for the drawing.
The drawing resulted in 47,920 winning tickets ranging from $40,000 to $4.
Gold Mart at 1531 Newport Ave., Pawtucket, sold the $40,000 winning ticket.
Joe's Central Ave Grill at 836 Central Ave., Pawtucket; Cumberland Farms at 3323 South County Trail, East Greenwich; and Stop & Shop at 1128 Mineral Spring Ave., North Providence, sold the $10,000 winning tickets.
The winning numbers were 5, 16, 22, 23, 29 and the Powerball number, 6.
Saturday's estimated Powerball jackpot is $40 million.
