Broke down in tears (4)

I believe the answer is:

wept

(Other definitions for wept that I've seen before include ""Jesus __" (shortest verse in the King James Bible)" , ""Jesus ___" (St John's Gospel, xi. 35)" , "Exclude, prohibit" , "Cried, sobbed" , "Sobbed heavily" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and the USA Today.
