Midnight "excursion" to the fridge (4)

I believe the answer is:

raid

(Other definitions for raid that I've seen before include "Sudden short attack" , "Sally" , "Sudden swift attack" , "Finch and Bronson starred in . . . . On Entebbe" , "Rapid surprise attack" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
