Interrupt a burglary (5-2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

break-in

This clue is a double definition.

'interrupt' is the first definition.
(I know that interrupt is a more specific form of break in)

'a burglary' is the second definition.
(I know that break-in is a type of burglary)

(Another definition for break-in that I've seen is " Criminal entry".)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
