No prize for 'winner' without lottery ticket
The Ohio Lottery director admitted a mistake after declaring a Toledo-area woman the winner of a 1.78 million dollar prize without a valid winning ticket. Attorney General Celebrezze said the lottery had no authority to award the April 19 1986 drawing prize in the Ohio Lotito game. Nabakowski called the ruling a definite mis take. The request had sought prize approval for Terry Adams of Sylvania.
