"NJ Store Donates $30K Bonus After Selling $1.13B Mega Millions Winning Ticket"

The New Jersey store that sold the historic $1.13 billion Mega Millions ticket has been revealed as ShopRite Liquors on Route 66 in Neptune Township. This marks the first Mega Millions jackpot won in New Jersey since July 2020, and the winner's identity will likely remain anonymous due to state laws. The massive jackpot is the 8th largest in U.S. lottery history, and the store plans to donate its $30,000 bonus to charity. Additionally, two $1 million tickets and a $2 million ticket were sold in New York for the same drawing.

The source of the ground beef is still being investigated, and one additional case of salmonella illness has been reported in Massachusetts. While ground beef is still available at ShopRite, no recall has been recommended by the U.S. Agriculture Department. Salmonella can be spread through contaminated water, food, and preparation surfaces, and it is important to cook ground beef thoroughly to kill the bacteria.

Rudy Giuliani Faces Multiple Lawsuits Over False Arrest and Assault Charges.

A former ShopRite employee, Daniel Gill, has filed a $2 million lawsuit against Rudy Giuliani and a group of police officers, alleging that they lied to police officers to get him jailed after he called Giuliani a "scumbag." Giuliani claimed that Gill hit him and called him names, but video footage shows that Gill patted him on the back. Gill was arrested and put in custody for 21 hours, but the charges were later dropped. The lawsuit accuses Giuliani and the police officers of false arrest, false imprisonment, and defamation. This is the second lawsuit filed against Giuliani this week.
