This lottery story just turned into a courtroom battle. A convenience store manager at a Circle K location in Scottsdale is now facing a legal dispute over a $12.8 million lottery ticket that was allegedly left behind by a customer. According to reports from 12News, the complaint filed in Maricopa County Superior Court states the incident happened on November 24. A customer reportedly asked for numbers to be replayed for “The Pick” drawing, and a worker printed $85 worth of $1 tickets. The issue? The customer allegedly only paid $60 — leaving 25 tickets sitting on the counter. Those tickets reportedly remained there overnight. The next day, after news broke that a winning ticket had been sold at the store, manager Robert Gawlitza allegedly scanned the remaining tickets and discovered that one of them was worth $12.8 million. Now the big question: Who legally owns the winning ticket — the customer who selected the numbers but didn’t fully pay, or the person who later scanned and possessed the ticket? What started as a routine transaction has turned into a high-stakes legal fight over millions. Proof that sometimes the real drama begins after the numbers are drawn. #ArizonaNews #LotteryDrama #CircleK #Scottsdale #LegalBattle #BreakingNews #LotteryWin #CourtCase #RealLifeNews #MoneyDispute #WhoOwnsIt
