Used a broom (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

swept

'used a broom' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for swept that I've seen before include "Searched; cleaned" , "Cleaned by broom" , "Cleaned by brushing" , "Was searcher" , "Wielded a broom" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, the Newsday, the Penny Press and The Wall Street Journal.
