Bring to a standstill (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stop

'bring to a standstill' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for stop that I've seen before include "Knock out" , "cut out" , "Cease, desist, whoa" , "Quit" , "Arrest" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
