Lacrimator (4,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tear gas

'lacrimator' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tear gas that I've seen before include "Police weapon" , "Discharge sprayed by riot police" , "Volatile substance" , "Lacrimator" , "'It can be used to disperse crowds (4,3)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
