Ran, as dye (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bled

'ran as dye' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for bled that I've seen before include "Lost blood" , "Haemorrhaged" , "Seeped (into an adjoining colour)" , "Extracted blood as treatment" , "Showed effects of injury" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune, the King Feature Syndicate and the Penny Press.
