A Manning couple has won $250,000 through the South Carolina Education Lottery. The South Carolina Education Lottery reported Monday that the husband and wife pair won on two scratch-off tickets purchased by the husband at the Stop and Save No. 2 on Broad Street in Sumter. "It was a shock," said the wife in a release. The lottery does not release the names of winners. Lottery officials reported that the man won $20 on a scratch-off before hitting the jackpot on the second ticket. The couple allegedly told the South Carolina Education Lottery that winnings will be used for their mortgage.
