TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — The Kansas Lottery says someone who purchased a Super Kansas Cash lottery ticket in northeast Kansas is holding a $1.8 million jackpot winner. Lottery officials say a ticket matched all five numbers and the Super Cashball on Monday night. The last mega-jackpot in the Super Kansas Cash lottery was paid on February 9 when a Merriam resident won just over $1.7 million. Winning players have one year from the date of each drawing to claim their prizes.
