National Lottery Confirm Location Of Winning Lotto Ticket
The National Lottery has confirmed that the winning Euromillions ticket for €88.5-million was sold at the Applegreen Service Station, on the M1 Northbound in Lusk, County Dublin.
It's quashed the rumour mill Leeside where speculation had been mounting that the ticket was sold in Fitzpatricks of Glounthane to a syndicate working locally.
Mystery still remains about the identity of the ticket holder however and it's possible the winner may not even be Irish.
The Chief operations manager for Apple Green says the ticket holder could literally be anyone as their customers are from areas ranging far and wide as many stop off on their way to and from the airport, and on their journeys to Belfast.
It's the third biggest ever Euromillions win in Ireland and the third Euromillions jackpot win of the last twelve months.
Lotto spokesman Ronan Leech told RedFM News that it's been a lucky 12 months for Ireland:
