A Kent Bridge couple is $1-million richer. 
Andrew and Mary Ellen Van Zelst hit the jackpot on the December 23rd Lotto 6/49 draw.
“I was very surprised when I saw $1-million on the screen – I thought the machine was broken!” Andrew Van Zelst says. “I asked the gentleman beside me to have a look when I re-scanned my ticket. Once he saw the words ‘$1-million’ flash on the screen he wanted to shake my hand!”
The Van Zelsts say they’ll need to sit down and figure out their next steps, but plan to use their winnings to buy a new truck, a recliner, and do some travelling.
The winning ticket was purchased at Daisy Mart on Grand Avenue in Chatham.
