Posted — UpdatedRALEIGH, N.C. — A Lee County man is counting his blessings after winning $100,000 through the state lottery.
Donald Baynes bought a $30 scratch-off ticket and won the big prize last week.
Baynes bought a Supreme Riches ticket at the Kangaroo Express on North Main Street in Broadway. The game launched in April 2019 with 15 $100,000 prizes, four of which remain to be claimed.
“I’m blessed and very fortunate to win something like this,” Baynes said. “I’m very grateful.”
Baynes, a site contractor from Sanford, claimed his prize Friday at lottery headquarters in Raleigh and took home $70,759 after taxes.'
