Lottery officials say Linda Tuttle of Kentwood stepped forward Tuesday with a winning ticket from the May 26 Mega Millions drawing. Tuttle then went home to check a pile of some old mail where she found the ticket, learning she was the big victor , according to the Michigan lottery.

A Kentwood woman’s chance conversation with a store clerk – and a fluke find of a ticket in a stack of old mail and other papers – revealed she was the victor of $1 million.

The winning ticket matches all five white balls.

New Jersey was one of three states where a $1 million ticket was sold along with Maryland and California.
