Boston's bid to host the 2024 Olympics is over.

A person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press on Monday that the U.S. Olympic Committee has severed ties with Boston. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the decision had not yet been made public.

The Boston bid soured within days of its beginning in January, beset by poor communication, low public support and an active opposition group.
