  TOMS RIVER – A shore resident – or perhaps a shore visitor – is a lucky jackpot winner…however, they will have to share the money.

  Two winning tickets shared all five numbers drawn on Saturday, September 19 for the Jersey Cash 5, according to the New Jersey Lottery Commission. One of them was bought at the Acme in Ortley Beach. The other was bought at Utopia Deli/Jackpocket in Hewitt.

  The winning numbers were: 03, 17, 19, 24, and 36 and the XTRA number was: 02. Each ticket is worth $200,959. Each store will receive $2,000 for selling the winning tickets.
