Holdup (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

delay

heist

'hold-up' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for delay that I've seen before include "Hold back" , "Postponement" , "Put off until later" , "Stoppage" , "hold-up of train?" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, The Mirror, The Irish Independent, The Telegraph, The Star Tribune, the Sydney Morning Herald, the King Feature Syndicate and The Independent.
