Mischievous tyke (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

imp

'mischievous tyke' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for imp that I've seen before include "Naughty demon" , "Mischievous monkey" , "Mischievous child" , "Small mischievous sprite" , "Young troublemaker" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
