Ross

I believe the answer is:

arrest

'take into custody' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for arrest that I've seen before include "Take into legal custody" , "Apprehend; detain" , "Stop - take into custody" , "Stop or slow down the progress of" , "Catch" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, The Times, the Universal, The Irish Times, The Mirror and the Sydney Morning Herald.
