LOTTO JACKPOT SPLIT 3 WAYS

The holders of three winning tickets in Saturday's Lotto drawing will split the $6.3 million Lotto jackpot, the Virginia Lottery said.

Each ticket is worth $2.1 million, about $80,287 a year after taxes for 20 years, lottery spokeswoman Cherie Phaup said.

One ticket was purchased at Appco in Bristol, one at Parkway Oil Co. at Jonesville in Scott County and one at Harris Groceries at Axton in Henry County, she said.

Saturday's numbers were 6, 18, 20, 28, 33 and 43.

Seventy-nine players matched five winning numbers to win $1,352; 4,121 players matched four to win $55, and 69,072 matched three for a free play.

Wednesday's estimated jackpot drops to an estimated $1 million.
