Limerick Lotto player half a million richer from Quick Pick

ONE LUCKY Limerick lottery player has scooped the biggest EuroMillions Plus jackpot in Ireland last night to date this year, winning €500k. 

The Lotto player purchased a Quick Pick ticket at the Daybreak, Elm Court service station in Ballyneety, Co Limerick.

The winning numbers were 17, 21, 28, 29 and 42. The Limerick winner, who now has a ticket worth €500,000, is advised to sign the back of their ticket and keep it safe.

"We have a team of ten here and we have all been saying how brilliant this is for the community. There is sure to be big excitement as word spreads. We have a real mix of local and passing trade so the winner could be any where really. We wish the winner all the very best with their huge win,” she said.
