Diversionary tactic (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ruse

'diversionary tactic' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ruse that I've seen before include "Deceptive device" , "Subterfuge" , "Cunning plan" , "Sue to be a ploy" , "trick played" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
