There are at least three winning tickets in the US for the record $1.6bn
(£1.1bn) lottery jackpot, officials have said.
The winning tickets in the Powerball jackpot were sold in California,
Tennessee and Florida.
The previous draw was the 19th without a grand prize winner, which
requires all six numbers to match.
Officials said it would take several hours to know if there were any
other winning tickets.

at a 7-Eleven store in Chino Hills, a suburb east of Los Angeles.
