Way to get everybody to stop running (5)
I believe the answer is:
stall
'stop running' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'way to get everybody' is the wordplay.
'way to get' becomes 'st' (I've seen this in other clues).
'everybody' becomes 'all' (all people).
'st'+'all'='STALL'
'to' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for stall that I've seen before include "Be evasive" , "(Of engine) stop running; booth" , "seat in church" , "Block" , "Temporise; sales booth" .)
