Fire crime (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

arson

'fire crime' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for arson that I've seen before include "major crime" , "Fire requiring forensic study" , "Crime of fire-setting (5)" , "Malicious burning to destroy property" , "Incendiarism" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and the Penny Press.
