The tower controller at day calls for an abort from a departure airliner on the takeoff roll and about to rotate. The controller noted that the departure cessna had made a right turn off runway 24L instead of a left turn and it was taking it directly in front of the about to be airborne air carrier on runway 24R.

Narrative:
Flight cleared for takeoff. At approximately 124 KIAS day tower advised to 'cancel the takeoff clearance.' we did a high speed abort. A high wing cessna, single engine aircraft, had departed off runway 24L and made a right turn instead of a left, according to ATC. Abort was normal -- no injuries to passenger or crew. On taxi back to gate, left outboard main tire fuse plug had blown. Continued to gate, short distance. Flight canceled upon inspection. FAA, union, and flight operations advised. A possible midair on takeoff could have occurred. ATC tower controller for runway 24R 'called the save.'
