They went a little cuckoo as the clock struck midnight.
Two sisters from Switzerland got in big trouble in Times Square on New Year’s Eve — for allegedly jumping around on the roof of a cop car right as the ball dropped.
The car was so badly damaged that the pretty brunettes’ passports have been seized and they are being charged with felony criminal mischief — and misdemeanor rioting — carrying a maximum of four years prison
“Why are you interested in this?” the younger of the Swiss sisters, 22-year-old Silvia Braham (above right, in court yesterday), angrily asked a reporter at Manhattan Criminal Court, where they made a brief court appearance yesterday.
Prosecutors told Silvia and her 23-year-old sister, Isabelle (left) — who are staying with family in Milford, NJ — that they had yet to be indicted.
A non-felony deal may be in the works, sources said. They are due back in court Tuesday.
It was just at midnight that the gals and two other revelers — who have not been caught or identified — climbed onto the hood and roof of a police car parked outside Papaya Dog on the southeast corner of Ninth Avenue and 42nd Street, according to the charges.
The car was a street vehicle with police placards and lights and sirens on the dashboard.
The sisters began to “kick and stomp on said vehicle multiple times with their feet and shoes, causing damage in that the roof and hood of said vehicle was severely indented and crushed,” the charges read.
“The windshield glass window was broken and cracked, and the driver-side mirror was almost completely detached and hanging from the vehicle,” the charges read.
Misdemeanor second-degree rioting charges were tacked on because “well over 100 people gathered around the defendants,” creating a grave risk of causing public alarm, the charges read.
The damages totaled hundreds of dollars, cops said.
The older sister is here on a work visa; the younger had flown in to visit.
They and their public-defender lawyers declined comment after yesterday’s appearance.
