A lottery player who bought a ticket in south suburban Bridgeview won Thursday night's $1 million Lucky Day Lotto jackpot, state lottery officials announced.
But the lucky winner has yet to come forward.
The Circle K gas station located at 7050 S. Harlem Ave. sold the winning ticket, which matched all five numbers in Thursday evening's Lucky Day Lotto drawing: 2-5-6-10-13.
“We are all thrilled and shocked that our store sold a $1 million winning ticket,” Circle K Manager Eva Adames said in a news release. “I’ve been a manager at this store for four years and this is the biggest jackpot we’ve experienced – it’s very exciting.”

For selling the winning ticket, Circle K will receive a bonus of $10,000, which equals 1% of the prize amount.
Along with the $1 million jackpot, more than 37,000 other prizes ranging from $1 to $200 were won in Thursday's Lucky Day Lotto drawing.
The jackpot winner has one year from the date of the drawing to come forward.
