A Lapeer County man kicked off the new year by discovering he won $1 million in the Powerball drawing. Robert Benaglio matched the five white balls in the December 23rd drawing. He bought the lucky ticket at the Metamora BP on South Lapeer Road. After playing weekly for 10 years, Benaglio only realized his win on New Year’s Eve when he scanned the ticket. With his prize, he plans to pay off his vehicles, take a vacation, and save the rest.
