In the past week, the CT Lottery announced it will be paying out more than $100,000 to local residents who can claim their prize after purchasing tickets and scratch-offs at area businesses.

According to CT Lottery, “when a winning scratch ticket is validated through a Lottery Retailer's terminal, the remaining number of unclaimed prizes for that prize level is automatically updated reflecting one less prize. Until the individual or group presents their winning ticket for claim at CT Lottery Headquarters, the identity of a winner is unknown.”

On Wednesday, June 23, Hartford County resident Lori Dean, of Canton, won $40,625 on “PLAY4 DAY” that was sold at the New Hartford Stop & Save. Stamford resident Patrick Benjamin also won $10,104 playing "PLAY4 NIGHT," on a ticket sold at the West Broad BP in Stamford.
