An Interjet Sukhoi Superjet 100-95, registration XA-LLV performing flight 4O-3142 from Mexico City to Tampico (Mexico), was accelerating for takeoff from runway 23R when XA-BIC crossed the hold short line and rejected takeoff coming to a safe stop.
Mexico's Accident Investigation Board did not report whether the takeoff was rejected at low or high speed and what distance remained between the aircraft. However, the occurrence was rated a serious incident and is being investigated.
XA-LLV was able to depart about 15 minutes later (suggesting takeoff was rejected at low speed).
