ATLANTA – Winning the lottery happened in a flash for one lucky Lithonia woman. Bettie Bryant, 61, is one of two winners each to win $384,245 from the Feb. 5 Fantasy 5 drawing, having matched all five of the winning numbers.

The lucky winner claimed her prize Feb. 6 at Georgia Lottery headquarters in Atlanta.

Bryant and her husband, Dwayne, have two adult children and two grandchildren.
A server at a hotel, Bryant anticipates shopping.
