    A resident of Gage, Oklahoma, was the lucky winner of an Oklahoma lottery scratch-off ticket worth $1 million.

    The winner, who was only identified by their first name, Jennifer, claimed the Grand Fortune Scratcher top prize on Tuesday. She purchased the ticket at Tom's Quick Stop in Shattuck.

    Jennifer told the Oklahoma Lottery that she plans to put her winnings toward a college fund for her children, as well as buying a new house.
