If you played the lottery in Deer Park recently, make sure you check your ticket.
A convenience store in the hamlet sold a $2 million second-prize winning ticket in Tuesday's Mega Millions drawing, the New York Lottery said. The winning ticket was sold at Bolla Market at 2111 Deer Park Ave., lottery officials said.
Efforts to speak to a representative of the market on Wednesday were not successful.
The winning Mega Millions numbers for Tuesday were 5, 15, 22, 33 and 37, with a Mega Ball number of 2.
The next drawing is Friday and the estimated jackpot is $110 million. Tickets are $5 after the price was raised last year.
Players last won jackpots in New York State, albeit not on Long Island, in 2023, according to the Mega Millions website.
