Run ___ (get out of control) (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

amok

(Other definitions for amok that I've seen before include "(Run) in murderous frenzy" , "Frenzied, running out of control" , "A state of murderous frenzy" , "going wild" , "'Wildly, without self-control (4)'" .)

I've seen this clue in the Wall Street Journal and the Universal.
