Are you downloading from the App Store, then there should be a Pause or Stop button.

Or ar you downloading the app through your browser, then there should be a Downloads button,

in Safari it is at the top right of the browsers window, click on that an d you should see the download,

click on the x next to the download.


Failing that shut your mac down, and restart.
