Bumbling tired to US city (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

detroit

'us city' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'bumbling tired to' is the wordplay.
'bumbling' indicates an anagram.
'tired'+'to'='tiredto'
'tiredto' with letters rearranged gives 'DETROIT'.

(Other definitions for detroit that I've seen before include "City in Michigan nicknamed Motown" , "Where cars are made" , "Centre of the US motor industry" , "US city associated with automobile production" , "US city in Michigan" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
