Burning bridges, e.g. (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

arson

(Other definitions for arson that I've seen before include "Fire requiring forensic study" , "Fire-raiser's crime" , "Crime of fire-setting (5)" , "Sonar (anag.)" , "Malicious burning to destroy property" .)

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