Hapless victim (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sap

'hapless victim' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for sap that I've seen before include "The juice in trees" , "Juice; energy" , "Vigour, energy" , "Weaken; tree fluid" , "trench used in siege" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
