Winning Mega Millions Ticket Sold In Newark

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) ― The Garden State has a new millionaire.

Lottery officials say a single winning ticket for Tuesday night's $126 million Mega Millions drawing was sold at Newark's AJ Seabra Supermarkets XII in Essex County.

The winner has not yet come forward to claim the prize.

The winning numbers from Tuesday night's drawing were: 2, 16, 23, 29 and 32. The Mega Ball number was 46.

If the winner takes the one-time lump sum payment, they'll get an estimated $75 million before taxes. If they opt for annual payments, they'll get an estimated $4.8 million a year for 26 years.

Officials say New Jersey residents have won the top Mega Millions jackpot eight times in the last three years, including four times in 2007.
