According to the Massachusetts State Lottery, Cecile Caruso of Everett has won the fourth and final $1 million prize in the Massachusetts State Lottery’s “Hit $500” instant ticket game.

Caruso chose the cash option on her prize and received a one-time payment of $650,000 (before taxes). She said she played this ticket hoping to win $500, only to win the $1 million grand prize.
