Assaulted (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

attacked

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">assaulted</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">('attack' can be a synonym of 'assault')</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for attacked that I've seen before include "Roasted" , "Launched an assault" , "was trying to score" , "Assailed, set upon" , "Assailed, assaulted" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and The Irish Times.
