LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Someone in Louisville just won $25,000 a year for the rest of their life!

According to Kentucky Lottery officials, a ticket sold for last night's Lucky for Life drawing matched the five white ball numbers drawn, but not the Lucky Ball.

The ticket holder won the game's second prize of $25,000 a year for life.

Check your tickets, here's the winning numbers from last night's drawing:

16, 21, 26, 43, 45. The Lucky Ball number was 13.

The retailer where the ticket was sold has not been released while lottery security staff members execute a series of measures where the winning ticket was sold.

In the meantime, lottery officials advise the winner sign the back of their ticket and keep it in a secure location. They have 180 days to claim their prize, which needs to be done at the lottery's headquarters.
