California Lottery has just made its FIRST EVER billionaire! It happened right here in Altadena, California! Just 15-miles away from our studios in Burbank. A single winning Powerball ticket – worth $2.04-billion-dollars – matching all 6 numbers was sold at Joe’s Service Center on West Woodbury Road! Two other tickets (matching 5) were sold in Gardena and Beaumont. Those are each worth a million bucks! Carolyn Becker works for the California Lottery and she talked about the (still unknown) grand prize winner. The ticket holder has one year to come forward and claim their cash!
