Narrative:
Engine start and taxi to runway 9 was normal. At about XA10 we were cleared into position and hold. 1 min later, takeoff clearance was received. First officer was flying. Shortly after the '80 KTS thrust set' call, tower called us with a garbled message. Moments later we received another garbled transmission. A third call to us was excited and urgent. I then said 'do you want us to abort the takeoff, to stop?' tower responded 'affirmative, affirmative.' at about 120 KTS the takeoff was aborted and we exited at taxiway F and told the passenger to remain seated. We taxied to runway 9 to wait for the brakes to cool. I called ccs maintenance to chock the nose gear and check the tires and brakes. Later the #3 tire fuse plugs deflated that tire. I walked through the cabin to check on the passenger and flight attendants. There were no injuries and everyone was calm. Then the #1 tire deflated. Ccs maintenance took control of the aircraft as the crew and passenger were bussed to the terminal. We later learned that aircraft Y made a short base to final approach and ended up going around. Tower requested that we abort the takeoff to avoid a traffic conflict.

Narrative: ENG START AND TAXI TO RWY 9 WAS NORMAL. AT ABOUT XA10 WE WERE CLRED INTO POS AND HOLD. 1 MIN LATER, TKOF CLRNC WAS RECEIVED. FO WAS FLYING. SHORTLY AFTER THE '80 KTS THRUST SET' CALL, TWR CALLED US WITH A GARBLED MESSAGE. MOMENTS LATER WE RECEIVED ANOTHER GARBLED XMISSION. A THIRD CALL TO US WAS EXCITED AND URGENT. I THEN SAID 'DO YOU WANT US TO ABORT THE TKOF, TO STOP?' TWR RESPONDED 'AFFIRMATIVE, AFFIRMATIVE.' AT ABOUT 120 KTS THE TKOF WAS ABORTED AND WE EXITED AT TXWY F AND TOLD THE PAX TO REMAIN SEATED. WE TAXIED TO RWY 9 TO WAIT FOR THE BRAKES TO COOL. I CALLED CCS MAINT TO CHOCK THE NOSE GEAR AND CHK THE TIRES AND BRAKES. LATER THE #3 TIRE FUSE PLUGS DEFLATED THAT TIRE. I WALKED THROUGH THE CABIN TO CHK ON THE PAX AND FLT ATTENDANTS. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND EVERYONE WAS CALM. THEN THE #1 TIRE DEFLATED. CCS MAINT TOOK CTL OF THE ACFT AS THE CREW AND PAX WERE BUSSED TO THE TERMINAL. WE LATER LEARNED THAT ACFT Y MADE A SHORT BASE TO FINAL APCH AND ENDED UP GOING AROUND.
