A Georgia lottery winner’s luck ran out of luck after he was murdered in a home invasion on Thursday. The 20 year-old Craigory Burch Jr. recently won almost half a million dollars from the Georgia lottery’s Fantasy 5 in November. Two months later, robbers broke into his home and gunned him down. Jasmine Hendricks, his girlfriend, who was in the house during the break-in, ran for help after the deadly attack.


Threee masked robbers blasted open the door with a shotgun and held Burch at gunpoint, demanding his money and wallet, she said.

"When they came in, he said, 'don't do it bro. Don't do it in front of my kids. Please don't do it in front of my kids and old lady,'" she told the local station. "He said I'll give you my bank card."

Burch then threw his pants to the robbers, who rummaged through the clothes to find his wallet. When the search came up short, the three shot and killed him before fleeing. 

Police are stilling hunting for the killers who targeted the recent lottery winner.
Burch, a forklift driver, bought his winning ticket on Nov. 29 from a gas station and won the $434,272 jackpot prize.
