Caught entering the store, you truss up and take to (6)
I believe the answer is:
escort
'take to' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with motion as well as being verbs in their base form.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for escort that I've seen before include "Ford car, first produced in 1968" , "One who accompanies, for protection or as an honour" , "restraint" , "Custodian" , "Accompany - Ford model" .)
