A woman who claimed to be the winner of the $1.08 billion Powerball jackpot was lying, according to the granddaughter of the owner of the store where the ticket was sold, the Daily Mail
reported.
Sarai Palacios, the granddaughter of Nabor Herrera, who owns Las Palmitas Mini Market near LA's Skid Row, told the Mail that the woman hadn't won the jackpot.
"I'm not sure why she did that. I guess she just wanted to be on TV," Palacios said.
