Unexpected obstacle (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

snag

'unexpected obstacle' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for snag that I've seen before include "Hitch, obstacle" , "Unexpected difficulty" , "Temporary hold-up" , "hurdle?" , "Slight problem" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, the Newsday and the USA Today.
