The jackpot in the multistate Mega Millions lottery drawing has grown to $70 million.

None of the tickets sold for Tuesday night's $56 million drawing matched all five lotto numbers and the Mega Ball. The next drawing will be Friday.

There were four second-prize winners, none in Michigan, matching all five lotto numbers but not the Mega Ball number to win $250,000 each. Also, 32 players, one in Michigan, matched four of the five lotto numbers, plus the Mega Ball number. Those tickets are each worth $10,000.

The winning numbers were: 2, 7, 23, 38 and 40. The Mega Ball number was 40.
