Willie Baker Jr. of Creedmoor took a chance on a $5 scratch-off and won a $200,000 prize.
Baker bought his lucky Lincoln ticket from Butner Family Fare on Central Avenue in Butner. He claimed his prize Friday at lottery headquarters and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $142,021.
The Lincoln game debuted in September as a part of the Cash family of games with six $200,000 prizes. Two $200,000 prizes remain to be claimed.
