Pickpocket to go down briefly (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dip

This clue is a double definition.

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

'to go down briefly' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for dip that I've seen before include "Depression in a surface" , "An informal swim or a downward slope" , "Lower into water for short swim" , "An informal swim or a depression" , "Pickpocket's" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
