Stickup man on "The Wire" (4)
I believe the answer is:
omar
'stickup man on the wire' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for omar that I've seen before include "- Khayyam, Pers. poet" , "- Khayyam, Persian poet, astronomer and mathematician" , "Old caliph" , "- Sharif, film actor" , "- - Sharif (films)" .)
