These 4 California Lottery players are new millionaires
LOS ANGELES - Four California residents are new millionaires after striking it rich with the California Lottery, claiming a total of $5.5 million in prizes. For Guadalupe Guerro, an everyday purchase of Scratchers resulted in a $1 million prize from the $100 million Mega Cash game. "I was visiting my mom in Santa Rosa, and on my way home, I decided to stop at a store to buy some Scratchers tickets," Guerro told the California Lottery. "I usually prefer the $5 tickets, but that day I bought two $10 tickets instead." "At first, I thought I had won $1,000, but then my kid pointed out, 'No, that's not a thousand, that's a million!'" Guerro purchased his lucky ticket at MD Liquor and Food in Rohnert Park.
