Illinois man killed by cyanide poisoning after striking it rich in lottery:

CNN) — One day, Urooj Khan literally jumped for joy after scoring a $1 million winner on an Illinois lottery scratch ticket.

Mr. Kahn, “Honey I won a million dollars on a lottery scratch off”!

Mrs. Kahn, “Don’t celebrate too much darling; you won’t live long enough to spend it”.

June 26 2012 was a very lucky day for Urooj’ and happiest day in his life but was very short lived. June 27 2012 someone very close to lottery winner put a damper on the old boys party and blew the candles for him.

After some extensive toxicology investigating indicating that the “lucky stiff” was poison the authorities are considering exhuming his body to see just how cyanide was in his system when he died.

The grieving Mrs. Kahn was not available for comment. Authorities went to her bank to see if she was making an early withdrawal.

Be careful what you wish for you might get it.
