SACRAMENTO —
Two bettors in San Diego County won more than $500,000 each by picking five numbers correctly on weekly state Lotto 6/49 tickets, but the $4-million top prize went unclaimed, a spokesman said Sunday.
The jackpot, totaling $4,133,653, will be “rolled over” into this week’s game, for which the prize is expected to exceed $8 million, spokesman John Schade said.
Two tickets had five numbers plus the bonus, entitling the holders to a $1,144,724 pool.
Each ticket holder will receive $572,362.
