MADISON, Wis. (AP) - State lottery officials say a winning Powerball ticket worth $31 million was sold in northeastern Wisconsin.

Someone who bought a Powerball ticket in Marinette is a new millionaire. The state lottery says the ticket was sold at City Limits, a Marinette convenience store.

The winner has 180 days to claim the prize.

It's the 15th Powerball jackpot winner sold in Wisconsin since the game was introduced in 1992.
