Another North Texan has won $1 million in a Texas Lottery scratch-off game.
The Texas Lottery said Tuesday that a Colleyville resident claimed the third of 15 million-dollar prizes in the 500x scratch-off game.
The ticket was purchased at Albertsons on Glade Road and was claimed just before Christmas on Dec. 23, 2024.
The winner, who asked to remain anonymous, now falls into the highest federal tax bracket of 37%. After paying $370,000 in federal taxes, they'll take home $630,000. Texas does not have a state tax on lottery winnings.
