AMELIA, Ohio (AP) - So far, nobody has come forward to claim a
Mega Millions lottery ticket worth $196 million bought in the village of Amelia, east of Cincinnati.

A lottery spokeswoman in Cleveland says the only winning ticket
in Friday night's Mega Millions drawing was sold at Main Street
Wine & Spirits in Amelia.

The store owners get $100,000 for selling the winning ticket. And 17 players who matched five numbers but not the Mega Ball number will receive $250,000 each.

The winning numbers were 6, 11, 39, 46 and 47. The Mega Ball
number was 26.
