The Mafia Crowd? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mob

I believe this is a double definition.

'the mafia' is the first definition.
(informal term for the mafia)

'crowd?' is the second definition.
(mob can mean a crowd of people)

(Other definitions for mob that I've seen before include "Large, disorderly crowd" , "Crime syndicate or disorderly crowd" , "Ugly crowd" , "Horde" , "An undisciplined gang of people" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
