Here’s how to make SURE you get caught breaking the law . . . do it during a LIVE TV broadcast.

A dentist in Clifton, New Jersey named Wayne Gangi put up some RACY Easter decorations outside his office this year.  It’s five mannequins in lingerie, wearing bunny ears . . . fishnet stockings . . . and holding Easter baskets.

A lot of people have been stopping to take pictures, and the city says he’s not breaking any laws.

But a woman who lives across the street thinks it’s DISGUSTING.  So on Tuesday, she started tearing down the display . . . while a local reporter was there doing a story on it.

The neighbor’s name is Desiree Mozek.  She showed up with scissors and started cutting the mannequins down.  Then she dismantled them in Wayne’s driveway, and removed their heads.

A reporter warned her that she could get arrested or fined for destroying someone else’s property.  But she said it was worth it.

It’s not clear if Wayne is pressing charges or not.  But he told the reporter he was heading to City Hall to take care of it, and the decorations would definitely be going back up.
