Man who helped Sandy victims wins $100,000 scratch-off lottery

John Turner, a 38-year-old Newark native who returned to New Jersey to help victims of superstorm Sandy, bought a lottery ticket while back home—and won $100,000.

Turner, who lives in the Chicago area and runs National Catastrophe Solutions, a Chicago-based water cleanup service, drove 17 hours from the Windy City to the storm-ravaged Garden State last week. On Nov. 4, Turner bought several scratch-off lottery tickets at a Neptune, N.J., convenience store. One of them—a "Championship Poker" ticket—was a $100,000 winner.
