ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - Someone in Georgia is $2 million richer after hitting the five white balls in Wednesday’s Powerball drawing.

The winning numbers for the July 24 drawing were 16-42-59-63-68 and the Powerball was 13. No one hit every number, so the $114 million jackpot goes up to $131 million.

Nineteen others won $100.

Powerball drawings are held Monday, Wednesday and Saturday nights.

Lottery tickets are sold in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
