It could be a life changing moment for someone on the Kapiti Coast

A lucky Powerball player from Paraparaumu has won 4.3 million dollars with Powerball First Division.

The winning ticket in last night's draw was sold at Kapiti Knitting and Lotto.

Store director Richard McKeown says the winner hasn't claimed the ticket at the store this morning ... but it's been really exciting to hear the news.

He says it would be good to see their reaction if they do claim it at the store.
