Extinguished with water (6)

I believe the answer is:

doused

(Other definitions for doused that I've seen before include "Extinguished or soaked" , "Drenched, soaked" , "Extinguished, threw water over" , "Plunged something into water or extinguished a fire" , "put out" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
