Warned of danger (7)

I believe the answer is:

alerted

(Other definitions for alerted that I've seen before include "Given signal" , "Put on guard, forewarned" , "Given warning" , "Warned or aroused to a sense of danger" , "Related about warning notified" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and the USA Today.
