Des Moines, IA- Four tickets purchased in Iowa came close to winning a portion of the $1 billion Powerball jackpot.
Radio Iowa reports that one winning ticket was purchased in California and the Iowa Lottery reports four tickets bought here were just one number away from claiming a portion of the prize.
Two of those tickets were purchased in Council Bluffs and Manson — and are each worth $100,000. The other two were purchased in Polk City and Des Moines and are worth $50,000.
The Iowa Lottery reports players here bought more than two-point-seven million dollars in Powerball tickets, including nearly two million dollars worth on the day of the drawing Wednesday.
