Why does the application crash when trying to select text?

When I try to select text many times in the TextView, the application crashes with the error.

Does anyone know what could be the problem?

Here is the markup for TextView:

<TextView
        android:id="@+id/list_item_message_text"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginTop="6dp"
        android:layout_marginBottom="6dp"
        android:gravity="center_vertical"
        android:inputType="none"
        android:linksClickable="true"
        android:singleLine="false"
        android:text="TextView"
        android:lineSpacingExtra="3dp"
        android:textIsSelectable="true"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />

In the code I set the attribute: messageView.setMovementMethod (LinkMovementMethod.getInstance ());
