An Indiana truck driver says he will retire early after winning the fourth-largest jackpot in Hoosier Lotto history.

An unnamed truck driver who lives in Perry County, Indiana, claimed a $42.5 million Hoosier Lotto jackpot, according to an April 25 news release from the Hoosier Lottery.

Lottery officials say that the truck driver won a free ticket after matching two out of six numbers on a previous drawing, and then redeemed that free ticket at On the Fly in Tell City for the March 12 drawing.
