Ignore this.I figured it out

@pritish I have encountered this problem. How did you solve it?

I do not see people answering this question. I got the same error and already fix it out.

I have added a initialization in the Crime construction as an empty string to mTitle. Otherwise it would be null which would create a exemption when calling .getTitle().toString().
