Charged rent! (4)
I believe the answer is:
tore
This clue is a double definition.
'charged' is the first definition.
(tear can mean to charge around)
'rent' is the second definition.
('rend' and 'tear' both mean to rip something)
(Other definitions for tore that I've seen before include "Pulled something apart forcefully" , "Ripped, ruptured" , "Ran" , "Ripped; went fast" , "Was moving very quickly" .)
