Arrest for a quarrel (3,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

run in

I believe this is a double definition.

'arrest' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a quarrel' is the second definition.
(I know that quarrel can be written as run-in)

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for run in that I've seen before include "Final stage" , "Quarrel; set-to" , "Brush" , "final stages of race" , "Dispute" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
