Gangster; covering (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hood

I believe this is a double definition.

'gangster' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'covering' is the second definition.
(I know that hood is a type of covering)

(Other definitions for hood that I've seen before include "Bronx district" , "See 8" , "Outlaw and gangster" , "this could provide cover" , "Head covering or American car bonnet" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
