BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A new lottery game that began in North Dakota less than two months ago has its first big winner.

The game is called Lucky for Life. State officials say a ticket that was purchased for the draw on Monday matched five numbers to win $25,000 a year for life, or a lump sum cash payment of $390,000.

The ticket was sold at the Utter Stop on Highway 5 East in Belcourt. The winner has yet to come forward.

Lucky for Life was launched in North Dakota on Jan. 31.
