A California Lottery ticket sold in San Francisco has won $1 million dollars, officials said Tuesday.

It comes as the lottery announced its first ever billionaire from a Powerball ticket sold in Los Angeles County. The ticket sold in San Francisco matched 5 numbers, reports ABC7.

"This means #CALottery has made its FIRST EVER billionaire," the California Lottery said in a tweet.

The winning Powerball ticket matched all six numbers and nets the lucky winner $2.04 billion.
