Hold-up (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

delay

heist

'holdup' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for heist that I've seen before include "criminal activity" , "Armed hold-up (sl.)" , "Audacious robbery" , "Mugging" , "Armed robbery" .)

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