EuroMillions jackpot rolls over again after nobody claims £185,000,000 prize

EuroMillions jackpot rolls over again after nobody claims £185,000,000 prize

Metro5 days ago

Tonight's EuroMillions draw has ended without anyone claiming the huge jackpot.
The prize pot had reached a massive £185,000,000 in time for tonight's draw – but the results show nobody has matched the winning numbers.
Tonight's National Lottery EuroMillions winning numbers are 4, 7, 14, 33, 36, 1 and 5 as the lucky stars.
Nobody has matched all five winning numbers and both lucky stars in order to claim the jackpot, meaning it will roll over to next Tuesday's draw, June 3.
And it looks like the prize pot could soon rival the largest ever EuroMillions jackpot.
A lucky player in Austria managed to scoop the £209,300,000 prize after the jackpot rolled over seven times in a row.
Successful players in the UK include two British people who bagged the EuroMillions jackpot of £83,000,000 in January and the £65,000,000 jackpot in February.
Even though nobody won the jackpot tonight, there are still plenty of people who have won some cash.
There are 18 ticket holders who matched all five numbers but no lucky stars, meaning they will receive a prize of £11,422.70.
Some 59 people matched four balls and two lucky stars, giving them a prize of £1,085.40, while just over 1,300 people matched four numbers and one star, for a prize of £89.80.
Plus, one person, with the code MJTF42151, has just been made a millionaire thanks to the Millionaire Maker selection.
But while many people may think that winning the large sum of money may be a blessing, it can also be a curse.
Studies in the US have found that people are more likely to declare bankruptcy within three to five years compared to the average citizen.
The pressure may also cause somebody to spiral into depression and lead to alcohol and drug abuse.

Bizarre 'drug mule' explosion as 13 Brits in hellhole prisons and facing death

The arrests of a number of Brits abroad in recent months has shone a spotlight on the worrying trend of criminal networks targeting ordinary UK citizens to act as drug mules. A sharp spike in the number of British nationals being arrested for drug trafficking worldwide has raised concerns among law enforcement agencies and border control officials. A recent wave of arrests, spanning countries in Southeast Asia and South America, has highlighted a worrying and growing trend: ordinary British citizens, including young and elderly individuals with no prior convictions, allegedly becoming embroiled in global drug smuggling operations. ‌ Over the past few months, UK nationals have been detained in various countries, including Spain, Ghana, Sri Lanka, Germany, Indonesia, Chile, and the United States, often after being found with substantial amounts of narcotics in their luggage. Behind these arrests lies a concerning pattern: organised crime networks are deliberately targeting British nationals who are less likely to arouse suspicion, often masquerading as innocent tourists or retirees. ‌ Traffickers view many Brits as ideal mules, given their ease of global travel and lack of prior convictions. Authorities claim many are being manipulated online - deceived into transporting "gifts" or "business packages" by scammers, or lured into smuggling by the promise of quick cash, often after experiencing financial difficulties. Former special branch officer Chris Hobbs, who played a key role in Operation Airbridge in 2002, a high-profile UK operation targeting Jamaican cocaine mules, described the current trend as profoundly alarming. "There's clearly been a shocking increase in the number of Brits being caught, which could be a result of the authorities profiling passengers differently," Hobbs divulged to the Mirror, reports the Mirror. "We see criminals befriending young girls on a romantic basis and then asking them to do a favour. I don't know whether that's what's happening in Thailand or whether it's just the case that they are being persuaded with easy money. "But if you talk to Border Force officers, they will also say that they're under-resourced and they know that there's a lot getting past them that they're not equipped to deal with. Catching cannabis traffickers in the UK is not a high priority, so those being caught really could just be the tip of the iceberg. "Crime gangs are crafty; they rope in people from all walks of life who don't appear to be your typical smuggler. It may be an elderly lady or a seemingly innocent young girl - such outliers have a greater chance of slipping through. Nonetheless, one would hope that now, Thai border officials might give extra scrutiny to such individuals." ‌ Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Britain's National Crime Agency has sounded the alarm, with an insistent reminder that "ignorance is not a defence". They are cautioning travellers against carrying items for others, regardless of how convincing they sound. The forecast remains grim with anticipations of more arrests and widening global probes, underlining the serious risk involved: even the slightest of slip-ups can have catastrophic consequences. ‌ Below we outline the unfortunate circumstances of Britons detained overseas: William "Billy Boy" Eastment - Chile Bowls enthusiast and senior citizen William "Billy Boy" Eastment found himself in hot water at Santiago International Airport, Chile, on May 18 when officials discovered over 5 kgs of methamphetamine hidden within a false suitcase bottom. The septuagenarian from the UK had touched down following a flight from Cancun, Mexico. Customs officers became suspicious during their standard checks, unearthing the drugs upon inspecting a concealed compartment. With evidence such as messages on his mobile suggesting links to contacts in Brazil and the States, authorities suspect that Eastment didn't act alone. ‌ He now awaits potential charges in pre-trial detention, a span which could last 120 days as Chilean prosecutors prepare their case. Should he be found guilty, he might be facing upwards of 15 years behind bars; however, cooperation with the investigation could lead to a reduced term. Unidentified couple - Spain. On May 5, a British duo, a man and woman aged 33 and 34 respectively, were apprehended at Valencia Airport after more than 33 kilograms of cannabis was discovered concealed in their luggage. The pair had arrived from France and initially informed customs officials that they had nothing to declare, purporting to be holidaymakers returning from Thailand. ‌ Spanish authorities highlighted that the couple were selected for inspection due to their anxious behaviour and elusive answers. Upon examination of their suitcases, airport staff observed a lack of personal belongings, instead uncovering vacuum-sealed packages filled with a plant-based substance, later identified as cannabis. The following day, both individuals were presented before a judge and remain detained while the inquiry is ongoing. It remains uncertain when or if formal charges will be brought by Spanish prosecutors, and a trial may not commence for several months. Jon Collyer, Lisa Stocker and Phineas Float - Indonesia. The court case involving three Brits apprehended in Bali earlier this year on charges of drug smuggling is currently in progress. Jon Collyer, 38, and Lisa Stocker, 39, were detained at Bali's Ngurah Rai International Airport in February when customs officers reportedly discovered 994 grams of cocaine in their possession. ‌ The authorities claim the drugs were hidden within their luggage. It's alleged that Collyer and Stocker were found with 17 packages of cocaine, estimated to be worth around £300,000, concealed in Angel Delight packets. Phineas Float, 31, was arrested a few days later, suspected of being the intended recipient of the narcotics. Float's trial is separate but all are facing similar accusations under Indonesia's strict drug laws. ‌ If found guilty, they could each face lengthy prison sentences or even the death penalty, depending on the court's decision regarding intent and trafficking. Chyna Jada Brown-Frater and Christian Owusu Williams - Ghana. Two Britons have been apprehended at Accra's Kotoka International Airport in Ghana, suspected of attempting to smuggle substantial amounts of cannabis. Chyna Jada Brown-Frater, 23, was intercepted on May 18 before she could board a British Airways flight destined for London Gatwick. Security personnel allege that her luggage contained 32 blocks of compressed cannabis, weighing roughly 18 kilograms and estimated to be worth around £170,000. She was detained and later appeared in court where she was remanded pending further enquiries. ‌ In an unrelated incident, Christian Owusu Williams, a 19 year old UK national, was reportedly caught trying to fly to Dubai with 92 blocks of cannabis, tipping the scales at just under 54 kilograms. While authorities have not confirmed any direct link between the two arrests, Ghana's Narcotics Control Commission has issued a statement reiterating its dedication to fighting drug trafficking. Both suspects are currently being held as legal proceedings unfold. Cameron Bradford - Germany. Cameron Bradford, a 21 year old woman from Knebworth, Hertfordshire, has been arrested in Germany after allegedly being found with cannabis in her luggage at Munich Airport. The young Brit was travelling solo from Thailand and made a last-minute change to her travel plans, choosing to transit via Munich instead of landing at London Heathrow as initially planned. ‌ This sudden alteration raised suspicions among German authorities, leading to increased scrutiny. She was apprehended on April 21 while attempting to retrieve her luggage. It's reported that Bradford is currently in pre-trial detention as German police delve deeper into the case, investigating the source of the drugs and any potential connections to organised drug trafficking networks. She may remain in custody for several months before a decision on prosecution is reached. ‌ Thomas Parker - Bali. Thomas Parker, a British national hailing from Workington in Cumbria, was handed a 10-month prison sentence by a Denpasar court in Bali this May. He was found guilty of failing to report a drug-related crime. Indonesian authorities arrested Parker in January after discovering him with a parcel containing over one kilogram of MDMA, also known as ecstasy. Despite the prosecution pushing for a 12-month sentence, the judges decided on a lesser term, citing Parker's cooperation, admission of guilt, and expression of remorse. ‌ The time Parker has already spent in detention since his arrest will be deducted from his sentence. Indonesia is renowned for its stringent drug laws, making Parker's relatively mild sentence stand out against potential punishments that can range from extensive jail terms to even capital punishment for trafficking offences. Through his legal representative, Parker stated he accepted the court's verdict and would not be lodging an appeal. Charlotte Lee May - Sri Lanka. Former flight attendant Charlotte Lee May, a 21 year old from Coulsdon in south London, found herself in hot water after being arrested at Bandaranaike International Airport in Colombo, Sri Lanka. In May, police allegedly discovered 46 kgs of synthetic cannabis, known locally as "Kush," in her luggage. ‌ Reportedly travelling solo, May was caught during a routine customs check. The street value of the drugs is estimated to be around £1.2 million. Sri Lankan law is notoriously strict on drug trafficking, with penalties reaching up to 25 years behind bars. May has refuted any knowledge of the drugs, insisting they must have been planted without her knowing. ‌ She remains detained while Sri Lankan prosecutors deliberate over the case and consider pressing charges. Bella May Culley - Georgia. Bella May Culley, an 18 year old from Billingham, Teesside, could face up to nine months in pre-trial detention in Georgia after being arrested in the capital, Tbilisi, on suspicion of drug trafficking. She stands accused of importing 12kg of marijuana and 2kg of hashish into the country. Prior to her arrest, Culley had been reported missing while thought to be on holiday in Thailand, sparking an international search. However, she was later located in Georgia, where she was taken into custody. ‌ During a recent pre-trial hearing, Culley revealed that she is pregnant. Prosecutors have asked for 55 days to collect evidence, with the investigation period potentially extended by another seven months. Her solicitor, Ia Todua, stated that investigators are trying to establish the origin of the drugs and whether Culley intended to pass them on. Kim Hall - USA. Kim Hall, a 28 year old British beautician from Middlesbrough, was arrested in August last year at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport while travelling from Mexico to the UK. US Customs and Border Protection officers allegedly discovered cocaine worth an estimated £4.6 million hidden in Hall's luggage. She reportedly informed authorities that she believed she was transporting two bags filled with cash and was unaware of their actual contents. She was detained and charged with federal drug trafficking offences. Her case is now in the hands of US prosecutors, and she is currently awaiting trial.
