W. Va. Couple Hits Powerball
WEST VIRGINIA....
One West Virginia couple, Frank and Patricia Proud of Durbin in Pocahontas County, found themselves $1 million richer this week after purchasing six Powerball tickets at Trent's General Store in Bartow. The couple had purchased one ticket with the PowerPlay multiplier, which was the winning ticket...the prize automatically jumping from $200,000 to $1 million. Computer records indicate another $200,000 Powerball prize won from a ticket bought at a Giant Eagle in Granville.
