Waylay (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

ambush

accost

'waylay' is the definition.
(I know that waylay can be written as ambush)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ambush that I've seen before include "Attack from concealment" , "Attack from concealed position" , "Scene of lying in wait" , "Waylay" , "Sudden attack" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Sun, The Independent and The Mirror.
