Threatens (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

menaces

'threatens' is the definition.
('menace' can be a synonym of 'threaten')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for menaces that I've seen before include "Threats" , "Threatens" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Wall Street Journal.
