A Missouri Lottery player won a $50,000 Powerball prize in the Oct. 31 drawing when her ticket matched four of the five white-ball numbers drawn, as well as the Powerball number. The winning ticket was purchased at Gerbes, 2900 N. Paris Road, in Columbia.
“I thought I was going to have a heart attack!” the winner said of her reaction.
The player said she plans to put some of her prize money toward paying off debt.
The winning numbers on Oct. 31 were 13, 19, 36, 39 and 59 with a Powerball number of 13.
