The largest Powerball lottery jackpot in US history, more than $590m (£388m), has been won by a ticket-holder in Florida, local lottery officials say.
They said the winning ticket was sold in a supermarket in the Florida city of Zephyrhills, which has a population of at least 10,000.
It was not clear if anyone had yet come forward to claim the record win.
Forty-two US states, the District of Columbia and the US Virgin Islands participate in the Powerball lottery.
That is a LOT of money .....:amazed:
