Employees at Bickell Auto Parts are $189,417 richer today after cashing a second-prize ticket from last Wednesday's Lotto 6-49 draw.

Ken Hagerman Sr. was in Toronto this morning to pick up the winnings on behalf of seven employees at the Carpin Beach Road business.

The winning group consisted of Ken Hagerman Sr., Ken Hagerman Jr., Christina Kelly, Terry Bourdage, Terry Reid, Robert Cole and Elaine Martel.

The group has been playing Lotto 6-49 for 15 years, and learned of its winnings last week after Christina Kelly, who buys the tickets, checked the winning number on the Internet.

Reached by SooToday.com this morning at her office, Kelly said that it was business as usual at Bickell, but each of the winners celebrated in their own way over the weekend.

The winning ticket was bought at Brookfield Market at 899 Second Line West in the Soo.
