Two major lottery drawings in Texas that put nearly $180 million in the pockets of winning ticket holders have set off widening state investigations over concern that ticket sellers and buyers may have exploited the rules.

AG Ken Paxton’s office joins two other investigations by state officials into the commission as one service suspends operations due to the agency’s ban.

Attorney General Ken Paxton’s investigation came after Gov. Greg Abbott directed the Texas Rangers to look into the two lottery jackpots.
