Bozeman Man Claims $40K Powerball Prize

HELENA, Mont. (AP) — A Bozeman man has claimed a $40,000 prize he won in the Dec. 5 Powerball drawing.

Montana Lottery officials say Wesley Biggar claimed his winnings on Friday.

Biggar bought his winning quick pick ticket at Casey's Corner Store on Valley Commons Drive in Bozeman. He matched four white balls and the Powerball to win $10,000, but with the Power Play option, the prize became $40,000.

Biggar says he plans to use his winnings to purchase Christmas presents for his family and to take a trip to Las Vegas in January.
