Winner of a $1 million Lottery Poisoned, Dies


Not long after winning a $1 million jackpot with a scratch-off lottery ticket, a Chicago man was poisoned with cyanide, officials said.

Urooj Khan, 46, had planned to use the money to pay off bills and invest in his dry cleaning business. Instead, he was poisoned, the Cook County Medical Examiner’s office said, adding that it had classed his death as a homicide.


Khan was accompanied by his wife, their daughter and several friends when he accepted an oversized check from Illinois lottery officials on June 26.

He described his initial reaction in a press statement.

“I scratched the ticket, then I kept on saying, 'I hit a million!’ over and over again. I jumped two feet in the air, then ran back into the store and tipped the clerk $100.”

The Chicago Tribune reported that his family was suspicious when he died less than a month later of what was originally ruled to be natural causes.

The medical examiner agreed to reopen the case and found he had died of “cyanide intoxication,” a spokeswoman for his office said.

  1. The man was obviously killed. The first and possibly only suspect is the person who would inherit him, his wife. They should do a thorough check on her!

  3. Hi every body on this site,my name is HUGN USMAN, I want to give a testimony about my HIV virus that was cured by a large caster. months I must be an HIV. I never think that I live it again and I am very grateful to this great man named High Priest Dr.otonu HIV AIDS who cured my last 4 weeks.
