The winner of a $1,000-a-day jackpot has claimed their winnings, but their identity is a mystery.
The Georgia Lottery announced that the lucky person who bought a winning Cash4Life ticket in Gwinnett County came forward last week. That person’s identity has not been released.
The ticket was sold at a Chevron station on Scenic Highway in Lawrenceville. The winning numbers drawn May 4 were 1-2-17-24-38, with the Cash Ball coming up as 4.
