FROM $20 TO $5 MILLION: LaBelle man wins big from scratch-off

LABELLE, Fla. — A $20 scratch-off led to a $5 million prize for a LaBelle man.

58-year-old Agustin Guerrero bought a $20 scratch-off game at Sunshine at 17100 Tamiami Trail East in Naples.

Then, with a few scratches, Guerrero revealed a $5 million prize. He claimed his money in Tallahassee on Dec. 8.

He chose to get the money in a one-time, lump-sun payment, which was just a little more than $3 million.
