Lotto bosses reveal location of €7 million jackpot win as players urged to check tickets

The search is on to find Ireland's newest millionaire after one lucky punter scooped Wednesday's life-changing Lotto jackpot worth over €7 million.

The Lotto jackpot had gone unclaimed for a number of weeks which meant the top prize in Wednesday night's (November 20) draw had ballooned to an incredible €7,028,440.

And one lucky player managed to match all six numbers and the bonus in last night's draw to win the life-changing sum.
