  • Richmond Resident Scores $5-Million from Lotto 6/49

A Richmond woman is the province's latest millionaire after winning five-million-dollars from Lotto 6/49.

Yvonne Sinclair matched all six numbers in a draw in early December but says she wasn't in a rush to claim her prize.

She now plans to buy a house for her family, take a tropical vacation and help her children with tuition.

Last year, B-C lottery players won more than 113-million-dollars from Lotto 6/49.
