(CNN) - Someone became very wealthy Wednesday night with a Powerball jackpot worth $1 billion.
The numbers drawn Wednesday were 4, 26, 66, 67 and 69; the red Powerball was 9.
A single ticket sold in Illinois won the jackpot while five other ticket holders in Massachusetts, Arizona, California, Florida and North Carolina won either $1 million or $2 million.
The jackpot-winning ticket was purchased at a Hy-Vee gas station in Quincy, Illinois.
Wednesday’s drawing stood as the eighth-biggest jackpot in Powerball history. It had a cash value of $433 million.
The jackpot was also the largest offered by any U.S. lottery game so far this year.
