Eric Johnson bought his winning ticket at Fast Check Market at 22902 Los Alisos Blvd., matching five of six winning numbers in the Feb. 5 drawing, according to the state lottery.

Another ticket sold at a 7-Eleven store at 818 W. 17th St. in Santa Ana is also worth about $245,000, but the winner has not come forward.

One ticket sold in Michigan matched all six numbers and is worth about $14 million.
