Newspaper crime (5)
I believe the answer is:
theft
This clue is a double definition.
'newspaper' is the first definition.
(The FT - Financial Times)
'crime' is the second definition.
(theft is a kind of crime)
(Other definitions for theft that I've seen before include "Crime of stealing" , "crime incident" , "Action of stealing" , "Unlawful taking" , "Illegal act of taking" .)
