INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - A lottery official says a jackpot-winning Mega Millions ticket worth an estimated $540 million was sold in Indiana.

Virginia Lottery spokesman John Hagerty tells The Associated Press it was the only jackpot-winning ticket in Friday night's Mega Millions drawing.

The consortium of lottery organizations that runs Mega Millions said a ticket matching all five white balls and the yellow ball would win an estimated $540 million.

Tickets are sold in 43 states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
