Lacombe resident wins $100,000 on lotto ticket

A Lacombe resident has a little extra pocket change after recently purchasing a WESTERN MAX ticket.

Kenneth Comfort purchased a ticket for the Aug. 17 draw, and is walking away with $100,010.

“I took my ticket to the store and scanned it on the self-scanner,” he said. “When I saw the amount come up on the screen my first reaction was, ‘That can’t be right.’”

Comfort hasn’t made plans for his winnings yet.
