An electrician got a shock - but it wasn't from the wiring of his house.
Retired electrial worker Richard Loveless was going through his usual Sunday routine on Oct. 18 when he learned that a winning $42.5 million Lotto ticket was sold the day before.
It went to the Pit Stop convenience store, and this was the same business where he purchases his Lotto tickets.
When the Port Byron man checked the winning numbers — 1, 9, 11, 16, 19, 22 — he was stunned. He had won the lottery.

Loveless, 64, returned to Pit Stop Wednesday where the New York Lottery's Yolanda Vega revealed he won the $42.5 million jackpot on Oct. 17.
He recalled the moment when he realized his ticket had the winning numbers.
"I ran into the bedroom and said, 'Sandy, Sandy.' She thought something was wrong with the dog. She said, 'What?' I said, 'I hit the lottery.'"
Loveless' wife was surprised. He had to repeat the life-changing news he just shared with his wife.
"She started screaming," he said.
With his winnings, Loveless said he will pay off his mortgage and his daughter's student loans. He also wants to finish work on his garage.
