Panda car wrecked during police officer's round (7)
I believe the answer is:
bearcat
'panda' is the definition.
(term for the red panda)
'car wrecked during police officer's round' is the wordplay.
'wrecked' indicates anagramming the letters.
'during' is an insertion indicator.
'police officer's round' becomes 'beat' (the area patrolled by a police officer).
'car' with letters rearranged gives 'rca'.
'rca' put inside 'beat' is 'BEARCAT'.
(Other definitions for bearcat that I've seen before include "Animal" , "Cabaret (anag) - red panda" .)
