Enraged Indiana bank crushes strike (8)
I believe the answer is:
inflamed
'enraged indiana' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with human feelings as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'bank crushes strike' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'strike' could be 'lam' (to 'lam' means to hit hard) and 'lam' is found within the answer.
'bank' could be 'fed' (nickname for the US Federal Reserve) and 'fed' is found in the leftover letters.
The remaining letters 'in' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for inflamed that I've seen before include "Red and sore" , "Swollen, hot, red" , "one so hot and bothered" , "Aggravated; red" , "Provoked (someone) to strong feelings" .)
