A “Lotto 6/49” grand prize jackpot of $3.8 million eluded California gamblers last week, but one runner-up ticket in the numbers game was worth $1,114,743, a lottery spokesman said. The California Lottery computer determined that while no tickets had all six numbers correctly marked, one ticket sold at Carl’s Liquor in Cucamonga was the sole winner in the five-of-six plus bonus number category. Another 143 tickets were winners in the five-of-six category and were worth $4,016 apiece, lottery spokesman John Schade said. Another 8,272 people bought tickets with four correct numbers and will be paid $63 each. The winning numbers were 16, 40, 38, 24, 14 and 10 with the bonus number 43. Next week’s jackpot was expected to be at least $7.5 million.
