The Virginia Lottery said Fekru Hirpo of Alexandria bought 20 tickets for the March 8 Pick 4 drawing with the number combination 2-5-2-7 when he visited the Four Mile Run Shell station on South Four Mile Run Drive in Arlington.

Each of Hirpo's tickets won a $5,000 top prize in the drawing, for a total prize of $100,000.

Hirpo said he doesn't usually buy large amounts of identical tickets for Pick 4, but he had a strong feeling about the March 8 drawing.

The winner said he doesn't yet know what he will do with his winnings.
