Seriously injure (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

maim

'seriously injure' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for maim that I've seen before include "Wound and permanently disfigure" , "Injure causing permanent damage" , "Wound and cripple" , "Disable, lame" , "Wound so that part of body is permanently damaged" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post.
