Better check your Georgia Lottery tickets, especially if you bought a ticket on Roswell Road in Atlanta.

Someone is holding a winning ticket worth $1 million that was sold from last Saturday’s Powerball drawing. No one has come forward yet to claim the prize, according to Georgia lottery officials.

Someone matched the first five numbers from the April 27 drawing. The numbers: 3-23-48-54-55 and the Powerball was 5. The winning ticket was sold at Roswell Road Amoco, 5995 Roswell Road in Atlanta, lottery officials said.

Powerball winners in Georgia have 180 days from the draw date to claim prizes.

Wednesday’s jackpot is at an estimated $165 million to a single annuity winner. Powerball tickets are $2 per play.
