RALEIGH – Tuesday’s Mega Millions drawing produced a $1 million prize for Marion Hughes of Mooresville.

Hughes purchased her winning ticket at Fast Phil’s on Brawley School Road in Mooresville.

Her $2 ticket matched the numbers on all five white balls, 15-19-33-39-68, beating odds of 1 in 12.6 million.

Hughes claimed her prize Wednesday at lottery headquarters in Raleigh. After required federal and state tax withholdings, she took home $707,501.
