Fell down; caved in (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

collapsed

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'fell down' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'caved in' is the second definition.
('collapse' can be a synonym of 'cave in')

(Other definitions for collapsed that I've seen before include "Fell apart" , "Cracked up - gave way" , "laid low" , "Gave way, caved in" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
