MIDDLETOWN, Pa., Jan. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Four new millionaires were created tonight by the Pennsylvania Lottery's 17th Millionaire Raffle. The selection of four $1 million raffle ticket numbers and four $100,000 raffle ticket numbers was televised live on the Lottery's evening drawing show.

The remaining 5,992 winning raffle ticket numbers for third- and fourth-tier prizes were selected, but were not televised due to time constraints. Winning numbers are selected by a computerized random drawing.
