INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (WANE) - A Fort Wayne nurse won $52,500 in the Hoosier Lottery Cash 5 jackpot through a free promotional ticket.

Nancy Harman purchased a Powerball ticket at the Speedway gas station at 6033 W. Jefferson Blvd. on November 17. She randomly received a coupon for a free Cash 5 ticket from a Hoosier Lottery promotion and redeemed it immediately.

Harman said she put the Cash 5 ticket in her purse and didn't think about it again until she checked her Powerball ticket a few days later.

Her Cash 5 ticket matched all five numbers drawn in the November 17 drawing: 7-11-26-34-36.

Harman has worked as a psychiatric nurse for 38 years. She plans to put the money in the bank and help her children and grandchildren.
