A suburban man is a millionaire after winning the grand prize in an Illinois Lottery scratch-off game.
Indian Head Park resident Zeraldas Usonis won a $2 million prize in the “Multi-Millionaire” scratch-off game, the Lottery announced Wednesday.
Usonis, who purchased the ticket at a gas station in the southwest suburb, says that he will buy a house and will expand his charitable acts to help the less fortunate around the holidays.
“Good people always win!” Usonis said.
