Arizona Lottery Dispute Escalates Over $12.8M Ticket Claims
The ownership of a $12.8 million Arizona Lottery jackpot ticket, printed but not sold before the drawing, is now contested by multiple parties. The Circle K store manager claims he purchased the winning ticket the morning after the drawing, despite lottery regulations that would typically assign it to the store. Further complicating matters, a customer whose purchase initiated the printing of the ticket, and a Circle K employee who allegedly sold the ticket to the manager, have also emerged with potential claims. The store is seeking a judicial declaration of the rightful owner amidst these escalating claims.
