Person with "sticky fingers" (5)
I believe the answer is:
thief
'person with sticky fingers' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for thief that I've seen before include "Stealer" , "Unlawful taker" , "Raffles, say" , "One's inclined to take" , "One who steals" .)
