At least one person in Washington state wins $754.6m Powerball jackpot

Prize is fifth-largest in Powerball history and the ninth-largest US lottery win ever

Someone in Washington state has just won the fifth-largest jackpot in Powerball history - $754.6m - and the ninth-largest US lottery prize ever, according to officials.

The Powerball player holding the single ticket which matched all of the winning numbers in Monday night's drawing hasn't been publicly identified. But that person can choose to receive the full prize through an annuity over 29 years or opt for a lump sum of $407.2m in cash paid immediately.
