Komoka woman wins $75k top prize on scratch ticket

A Komoka woman was in disbelief after scratching her way to a $75,000 lotto win.

Leanne Mackenzie, a 42-year-old hospitality worker, says she is a frequent lottery player always looking for new games to play.

Mackenzie says her boyfriend picked up some scratch tickets for her which led her to the top prize win on Instant Cash Word$

"I was playing my ticket in my car and I was shocked," Mackenzie said. "These things don't happen to me."

Mackenzie looks forward to spending some of her prize money, but added she's waiting for the lockdown to end first.

"I will treat myself with something, but for now I will enjoy having money in the bank."

The winning ticket was purchased at Sak's Market on Rectory Street in London.
