DETROIT (WXYZ) — A Detroit man will be debt-free after winning a $454,448 jackpot from the Michigan Lottery.

The lucky player, who chose to remain anonymous, matched the Fantasy 5 numbers in the Sept. 16 drawing to win the big prize. He bought his winning ticket at the CVS pharmacy, located at 19900 VanDyke Road in Detroit.

"I play the Daily 3 and Daily 4 regularly, and play Fantasy 5, too," said the player.

The player visited Lottery headquarters to claim his big prize. He plans to pay some bills and then invest the remainder.
