10:51am Tuesday 19th March 2013 in News
A LOTTERY prize of £56,083 has yet to be claimed in York.
National Lottery players are being urged to check their tickets for the chance to claim the prize.
The winning ticket matched five numbers and the bonus ball in the Lotto draw on Saturday, March 2. The winning Lotto numbers on that date were 6, 9, 23, 31, 35, 48 and the bonus ball was 11.
The lucky ticket-holder has until August 29 to claim their prize when the money will go to The National Lottery Good Causes.
A National Lottery spokesperson said: “We want to find this mystery ticket-holder and unite them with their winnings – this amazing prize could really make a huge difference to somebody’s life. We are urging everyone who bought a ticket in this area to check their old tickets again or look anywhere a missing ticket could be hiding.”

If the lottery can pinpoint exactly where a ticket was bought why can't they release a photo of said person?
