ENFIELD, Conn. (WTNH) -- An Enfield man is the first $1 million winner in the new Ghostbusters scratch ticket game, officials with the Massachusetts State Lottery Commission said.

The winning ticket was sold on Tuesday, Sept. 9, in Agawam, Mass. The winner chose the cash option on the prize and received a one-time payment of $650,000, before taxes, according to lottery officials.

The man said he plans to use the money to purchase a new home and invest. He also won $10,000 on an instant scratch ticket the week before, which was sold at the same location, lottery officials said.

The Agawam store won a $10,000 bonus for the ticket sale.
