A man who recently found a lottery ticket with a $10,000 prize has handed it over to the police, hoping the owner will come claim it. On Dec 31, the man surnamed Wu was on board bus service 925 travelling towards Marsiling MRT station when he noticed three 4D tickets on a seat. Wu noticed that one of the tickets had the winning number 6777 — the first prize of the Dec 29 draw. «I also buy 4D, so I'd pay special attention to the numbers drawn,» 70-year-old Wu told Shin Min Daily News. "I remembered the first prize number of the day, that was how I realised the ticket had won a prize.” While he has a habit of picking up stray lottery tickets to look at them, but this is his first time finding a winning ticket. Wu said he wasn't able to identify the owner of the tickets that day as many passengers alighted the bus at the same time. Therefore, he handed the 4D ticket over to the police in Toa Payoh via the found property drop box on Jan 1. Wu said he also made a report at a police station in Yew Tee on Jan 3, thinking that the owner might live near Marsiling. Read more
