A winning Mega Millions lottery ticket worth $10,000 was sold recently at a Stone Mountain convenience store, the Georgia Lottery said.

The ticket was purchased at Buddy’s Food Mart, located at 5003 Central Drive just off Memorial Drive. It matched the first four winning numbers with the Mega Ball in Tuesday’s drawing: 17-36-47-51-62, and the Mega Ball was 21

The winner has not yet come forward to claim their prize, but they have 180 days to do so.

The jackpot in Friday’s Mega Millions drawing is an estimated $155 million.
