LINCOLN, Neb. -- For the third time in four days, someone has hit the Nebraska Pick 5 jackpot.

The most recent winner hit all five numbers on a $50,000 jackpot with a ticket bought at Nick's Gas and Liquor in Alliance.

That followed a $54,000-winning ticket at Prime Stop in Wayne, while a lucky person bought a ticket worth $224,000 at a CVS Pharmacy on 132n Street in Omaha late last week.

Lottery officials have not officially announced any winners coming in to claim the jackpot prizes yet.

The Nebraska Lottery draws seven times a week for the $1 game.
