Running away (7)

I think it could be either:

bolting

fleeing

'running away' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Another definition for bolting that I've seen is " Running away without warning".)

I've seen this clue in The Times and the Sydney Morning Herald.
