From what we know, it appears to be a high speed abort.   Someone on the ground saw a puff of smoke from an engine then the TR's deployed.

  On a transport jet, take off is predicated on weight, temperature, wind, and runway conditions.  The profile is at V1 the aircraft can be brought to a stop with remaining runway (which includes the over run area).  After V1 the airplane should continue the takeoff, and if it has an engine loss it should clear the runway end at 35 feet for the first segment.

 High speed abort is risky.  There are very few items that would predicate a high speed abort.  IOW's, once above 100 knots the crew would have to be certain the aircraft will not fly to abort (control jam, aircraft fire, etc)   Engine failure you are better off to continue the takeoff, get in the air, deal with the emergency and bring it back.
