AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Lottery Buzz: No one matched all six numbers in Saturday’s Powerball drawing, so the jackpot keeps climbing to an estimated $748 million for Monday, Aug. 3 (cash option $325.1 million). Winning numbers were 6, 17, 27, 48, 50 with Powerball 5 and Power Play 3x; while the jackpot was unclaimed, a $809,204 ticket was sold in Los Angeles (Chevron on Olympic Blvd in Sawtelle), and other big non-jackpot prizes were reported. Local Politics: In the USVI Democratic governor primary, Stacey E. Plaskett and running mate Milton E. Potter defeated Tregenza A. Roach, winning with 4,493 votes and a 1,439-vote margin in unofficial results. Earthquake Update: A moderate 4.93 earthquake and a 4.00 aftershock shook waters north of St. Thomas, prompting VITEMA to ask residents to report where and when they felt the tremors. Public Safety/Crime: VIPD issued a wanted bulletin for 21-year-old Deshawn Henley in connection with a 3rd-degree burglary investigation on St. Croix. Regional Culture: The 2026 Bank of Nevis Miss Caribbean Culture Queen Pageant is set for Aug. 3, with U.S. Virgin Islands contestant Safiah Wharton among the lineup.
