(WOODLAND HILLS, Calif.) — A California ticket won a $421 million Mega Millions Jackpot, the equivalent of $289.5 million in cash, on Friday.
The winning ticket was sold at a Chevron gas station in Woodland Hills, California, according to the California Lottery.
A ticket holder matched all six numbers, white balls 3, 16, 25, 44 and 55 and the gold Mega Ball 13, in Friday’s drawing, according to Mega Millions.
