2 VALLEY RESIDENTS WIN CASH 5 PRIZES

Two New River Valley residents had the winning combination earlier this week for the Virginia Lottery's Cash 5 drawing.

Emily Dobbins of Dublin and Kenneth Harris of Radford each earned $100,000 Monday by matching all five numbers correctly.

The winning numbers were 7-13-20-21-30.

According to Lottery officials, Dobbins' winner was a free "easy pick" ticket she got when she bought a Cash 5 ticket at Cockerham Fuel Center and Restaurant in Hillsville.

She told Lottery officials that she has no immediate plans for the money.

Harris bought his winning ticket from the Foodette #4 on Peppers Ferry Road in Radford, allowing the terminal to select the winning numbers.

He'll save the money for retirement, Harris told Lottery officials.

Both Dobbins and Harris received checks for $68,000 after the Lottery, as required, withdrew 28 percent for federal and 4 percent for state taxes.
