Florida Lottery Fantasy 5 winner James Simmons Jr., 61, of Bellwood, AL, has claimed the $265,529.57 Fantasy 5 top prize from the February 7 drawing.
Simmons purchased his winning Fantasy 5 ticket at the State Line Beverage Package Store, located at 1065 Highway 179 A in Westville in Holmes County.
The retailer received a bonus incentive of $500 for selling the top prize winning ticket. The winning numbers were: 11 - 15 - 19 - 25 - 26
According to Simmons, “Considering the state of today’s economy, my winnings will go toward paying bills.”
His ticket was the only one sold statewide for last Saturday night’s drawing.
