Halt (progress) (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

arrest

(Other definitions for arrest that I've seen before include "Take into legal custody" , "apprehend a law-breaker" , "Stop - take into custody" , "Run in" , "Detain under suspicion of criminal behaviour" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
