Ross

I believe the answer is:

slew

(Other definitions for slew that I've seen before include "a large number in America" , "Killed in archaic way" , "Move obliquely or sideways, often losing control" , "making sharp turn" , "Killed - swing" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the Universal and the BuzzFeed.
