Steal broken orb (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rob

'steal' is the definition.
(robbing is a kind of stealing)

'broken orb' is the wordplay.
'broken' is an anagram indicator.
'orb' anagrammed gives 'ROB'.

(Other definitions for rob that I've seen before include "Steal or purloin" , "Hold up" , "Nick" , "Take without consent from the owner" , "Take something without the owner's consent" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
