Narrative:
As our aircraft was given takeoff clearance from hou tower, I noticed a cessna citation approaching our runway from taxiway K. The citation did not stop and continued onto and across our departure runway. I told tower we were aborting due to the citation. After the aircraft cleared the runway 12R we were again issued takeoff clearance. Supplemental information from acn 518294: we told the tower we were aborting due to the citation. The tower said nothing, waited for the plane to finish across, then reclred us for the takeoff.
