Warren Martin’s wife called him screaming! He was taken aback and was actually worried because his wife had a recent surgery and he feared that she was calling him due to complications. Luckily she was screaming on the phone because she had just discovered that Warren had won $250,000 playing Mega Millions! National lottery

With all the fuss, Martin wasn’t so sure so he went home to double check the ticket. He found that the numbers he had picked, his badge number, the number of his favorite baseball player and some significant dates, along with two numbers that he chose out of the blue, had indeed made him a winner. His wife Nurie was all about the place, but Martin who is former police officer and U.S. government worker, took a wait and see attitude until he had the check in hand. Once he had the check in his hands he brimmed with a wide smile and described the whole experience as “a blessing”.

With these winnings Martin intends to pay off his mortgage, pay medical bills and take a trip to Kosova, where he met his wife and where her family still lives.
