Powerball ticket worth $1.3 million sold in Los Angeles

The Powerball jackpot rose to a whopping $1.3 billion Monday night after no winning ticket was sold. 

What we know:

The numbers drawn were 8, 23, 25, 40, 53, with the Powerball 5.

No one has matched all six numbers since May 31, allowing the jackpot to swell to $1.3 billion, which would be the fifth-largest prize in the game's history if there is a winner in the next drawing on Wednesday night. It's the ninth largest among U.S. lottery jackpot games.

Local perspective:

Although there was no lucky jackpot winner, one ticket sold in Los Angeles matched all but the Powerball number. The ticket was sold at the 76 Station at 14478 Ventura Boulevard in Sherman Oaks. Whoever turns it in receives a payout of $1,378,451. 

Twelve tickets total won $1 million or more in last night's drawing.
