Israel Carbajal of Pender County told North Carolina Education Lottery officials he was at Yaya's Mini Mart in Currie to get a bottle of water after work when he decided to buy a $25 Extreme Cash scratch-off ticket.

Carbajal visited lottery headquarters Tuesday to collect his prize, and it wasn't his first visit -- he previously won $200,000 from a $500 Frenzy scratch-off ticket he bought in July 2017. The two-time winner said he plans to use his latest winnings to pay off his father's medical bills and buy a new Honda car.
