Dig out victim (6)
I believe the answer is:
quarry
I believe this is a double definition.
'dig out' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'victim' is the second definition.
(quarry is a kind of victim)
(Other definitions for quarry that I've seen before include "Hunted animal - mine" , "Hunted animal; stone pit" , "Excavated pit" , "Prey or stone pit" , "Surface excavation" .)
