Took the wrong way (5)
I believe the answer is:
stole
'took the wrong way' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for stole that I've seen before include "Garment; took unlawfully" , "Item of clothing" , "Misappropriated" , "Garment worn over the shoulders" , "Took - scarf" .)
