Unfortunate accident (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mishap

'unfortunate accident' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for mishap that I've seen before include "Unfortunate occurrence" , "An accident or unlucky event" , "Blow" , "Accident, something going wrong" , "Contretemps" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, The Guardian and the Newsday.
