Illinois' anti-gambling lobby is speaking out against a plan to sell lottery tickets on the Internet. Illinois lottery officials want lotto tickets available online by next spring.

A St. Louis man has claimed a $2.7 million jackpot in the Missouri Lottery's Lotto game.

Lottery officials said Tuesday that 62-year-old Steven Niemczyk bought the winning ticket for the July 21 Lotto drawing at a convenience store in St. Louis. The winning numbers were 2, 13, 14, 15, 19 and 38.

The lottery says Niemczyk has chosen to receive the prize in 25 annual installments.
