Clerk sells man winning lottery game by mistake
BRIDGETON, N.J. No one is complaining about a mistake made by a store clerk in southern New Jersey. Indian Fields Market owner Domenic Galle said a man walked into the store and asked for a Deuces Wild scratch-off lottery ticket Nov. 16.
Galle said the clerk gave him an Aces High ticket instead. The clerk chased after the man when she realized she made a mistake. But he was gone.
Galle said he walked in an hour later with a $100,000 winning ticket.
The winner did not want to release his name.
