A family syndicate in Co Cavan are the winners of the €17 million EuroMillions jackpot.
The Anglo Celt Newspaper in Cavan reported that a father, son and daughter have won the prize.
The Quick Pick ticket was purchased at the Lidl Store at Creighan on the Athlone Road in Cavan on the day of the draw, Friday 12 December.
The paper reported that a statement issued through the family's solicitor, James M Donohoe and Company, said that "the family are over the moon".
"This is a life changing sum of money to win. They are absolutely delighted," the statement continued.
The winning ticket was signed in the presence of all family members yesterday afternoon, before making contact with Lottery HQ.
The National Lottery has confirmed to RTÉ News that the jackpot winners have been in contact with its Prize Claims team.
Arrangements are being made for the winners to collect their prize.
This is the second Irish EuroMillions jackpot win this year after a player won €250m in June.
It also marks Cavan's second millionaire in two weeks, following a Daily Million top prize won on 30 November.
