Laid-off mother claims Lotto jackpot

A mother of 3 who lost her job last year in the hard-hit northern Indiana city of Elkhart is collecting $1.9 million from a Hoosier Lotto jackpot.

Shantay Britman, 35, of Elkhart said she was due to start a job next month but instead will take the summer off before resuming classes toward a general studies degree at Indiana University-South Bend.
