Seize violently (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wrest

'seize violently' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for wrest that I've seen before include "The old piano tuner" , "With difficulty obtain" , "Seize forcibly" , "Twist" , "Grab" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and the Newsday.com.
