Lotto winner hits $5.6m jackpot

An Endeavour Hills woman is $5.6 million richer after being the sole Victorian division-one winner in a recent Oz Lotto draw.

She was oblivious to the 18 May draw win before she was rang by an official from The Lott the next morning.

“Oh my God. Oh my God. I am so sorry, I can’t stop crying,” the overwhelmed winner said.

“Are you kidding me? I can’t even hold the phone right now. I can’t stop shaking.”

Now come plans to help her family and plan a few holidays, she said.

“I’ve had quite a tough time lately, so this just adds some light to my life.”

The winning 18-game entry was bought at Endeavour Lotto & News at Endeavour Hills shopping centre.

The lotto outlet’s owner Usharani Vinu said she was ecstatic to have made one of her customers a division one winner.

“We were so excited when we found out we’d helped make one of our customers a multi-millionaire.

“We’d love to send our congratulations to our winner. We hope this prize makes a great difference to your life.”

The winning numbers were 9, 19, 3, 39, 32, 25 and 38, with supplementary numbers 7 and 18.

Three division one winners across Australia shared the prize.
