Lottery player's mom ‘started screaming' when she learned of big win in Virginia
A Virginia woman was in disbelief after scoring a major lottery prize, officials said.
'I was just in shock,' Chomedy Hatton, from Suffolk, told the Virginia Lottery, according to a June 27 news release.
Hatton turned a $10 Jewel 7s scratch-off ticket into a $500,000 top prize win, lottery officials said.
'I told my mom, and she started screaming!' Hatton said, according to lottery officials.
She bought her ticket at a Food Lion in Carrollton, about an 80-mile drive southeast from Richmond, the lottery said.
The odds of winning the top prize in the Jewel 7s game, which started June 3, are 1 in 612,000, lottery officials said. The odds of winning any prize in the game are 1 in 5.24.
This is the first top prize to be claimed in the game, and two more remain, according to the game's web page.
