Rush, causing damage (4)

I believe the answer is:

tear

I believe this is a double definition.

'rush' is the first definition.
(tearing is a kind of rushing)

'damage' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'causing' is the link.

(Other definitions for tear that I've seen before include "Shred" , "Lacerate - sign of sorrow" , "A rip goes on a binge?" , "A rip or cut" , "Rip; salty drop" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
