Lottery Winner Is Found De ɑd With The Winning Ticket Still In His Pocket

Gregory Jarvis, 57, went on a shooting spree while visiting the Blue Water Inn in Kaysville, Michigan. During his stay on September 13, 2021, Jarvis played and won an additional Club Keno game called “The Jack.”

However, he needed his Social Security card to claim the lottery winnings, which he did not have with him at the time and is required for all lottery prizes over $600 in the state of Michigan.

Jarvis applied for a replacement Social Security card, but then disappeared the next week. Authorities found his body washed ashore on a Kaysville beach along Saginaw Bay on Friday, about 10 days after he won the lottery.

During his stay at the inn, Jarvis won a $45,000 lottery jackpot for his Keno game. He couldn’t get the money right away because he had to replace his Social Security card. He applied for a replacement card and then began working on his plans to visit family with his lottery winnings.
