Outstanding police officer (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

super

This clue is a double definition.

'outstanding' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'police officer' is the second definition.
(term for a senior police officer)

(Other definitions for super that I've seen before include "Topnotch, terrific" , "Prefix meaning above or informally great" , "Jolly good" , "senior cop" , "(Of product) of extra fine quality" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and The Sun.
