{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}New Jersey lottery officials say the winner of a Powerball jackpot worth $315 million has come forward.
But the ticket holder's name won't be revealed until a news conference Friday.
Lottery officials say the New Jersey resident holds the lone winning ticket for the May 19 drawing. It was sold at a ShopRite grocery store in Hackensack. The ticket matched all five white balls and the Powerball to win the jackpot, which has a $183.2 million cash value.

This marks the second major lottery win in New Jersey this year. A Vernon man won a $533 million Mega Millions jackpot in March.
