Ronald Tatum of Sterlington claimed a $10,000 Powerball prize from the Sept. 6 drawing at the Louisiana Lottery's Monroe office.

"I got up the morning after the drawing and went to the store for a biscuit," said Tatum. "I got the winning numbers while I was there and saw that I won!"

Tatum purchased his winning ticket from Sterlington U Pak-It on Highway 2 in Sterlington.
