By Mashaun D. Simon
Dec 18, 2009What started out as a simple trip between a grandmother and her granddaughter, resulted in a lottery win for a 72-year-old Columbus great-grandmother.
Inell Davis is now $12,000 richer after recently playing the Georgia Lottery’s KENO.
She and one of her granddaughters stopped at Steam Mill Food Mart on Steam Mill Road in Columbus where she made the winning purchase.
“I almost passed out when I found out how much I won,” she said when she heard the winning bell chime.
Her seven children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren should expect to get a few extra gifts on Christmas day, she said.
