HYATTSVILLE, Md. — One man recently scratched off a $5 million Maryland Lottery ticket.

School bus driver Maurice Williams was recently heading to work when he stopped by a Hyattsville 7-Eleven on Sheriff Road.

One lottery ticket later, Williams was a multi-millionaire.

Coincidentally, Williams purchased the winning ticket with money he won from a previously purchased ticket.

“I just sat there stuck, I mean, I couldn’t believe it,” Maurice said. “I had to get my head straight.”

Maurice soon called his mother about the great news. He says mom is now destined for a new house.

In case you're wondering, Maurice played the $5,000,000 LUXE scratch-off game which has two grand prizes remaining.
