A Dearborn Heights man and his wife "went crazy" after winning $1 million playing Powerball.

Boris Cvetkovski, 78, matched the five white balls – 04-19-23-25-49 – in the Jan. 13 drawing to win a $1 million prize. He bought his winning ticket at the Food Max store, located at 27333 Cherry Hill Road in Inkster.

"When my wife and I checked my ticket we went crazy," said Cvetkovski. "We can't wait to share the good fortune with our family."

Cvetkovski visited Lottery headquarters to claim his prize.
