Arrest for a trick (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stunt

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'arrest' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'trick' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'for a' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for stunt that I've seen before include "Inhibit - exploit" , "Impede growth" , "Restrict growth" , "Exhibitionistic performance" , "Limit the growth of" .)

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