Maps API throws NullPointerException on animateTo() method

I'm getting a fatal exception when trying to animate the map to a certain GeoPoint - here is the Exception:

12-20 17:53:20.400: E/Crittercism(3523): java.lang.NullPointerException
12-20 17:53:20.400: E/Crittercism(3523): at com.amazon.geo.maps.MercatorProjection.latLongToWorldPixels(MercatorProjection.java:397)
12-20 17:53:20.400: E/Crittercism(3523): at com.amazon.geo.maps.MercatorProjection.toPixels(MercatorProjection.java:69)
12-20 17:53:20.400: E/Crittercism(3523): at com.amazon.geo.maps.MapView.animateTo_AmazonInternal(MapView.java:1801)
12-20 17:53:20.400: E/Crittercism(3523): at com.amazon.geo.maps.MapController.animateTo(MapController.java:46)
12-20 17:53:20.400: E/Crittercism(3523): at com.fatattitude.myapplication.MyMapActivity.moveMapToPoint(BusMapActivity.java:1564)

Here is my code. My log output also shows that the GeoPoint had values of LatitudeE6= 51537141 and LongitudeE6= -246271

private void moveMapToPoint(GeoPoint gp, int zoomLevel) {
MapController mc = mapView.getController();

if (zoomLevel < 0)
zoomLevel = mapView.getZoomLevel();

mc.stopAnimation(true);
mc.setZoom(zoomLevel);

String strGeoPointInfo = String.format("Lat:%d, Lng:%d", gp.getLatitudeE6(), gp.getLongitudeE6() );
Log.i("GeoPoint-Info", "**moveMapToPoint: " + strTestOutput);

mc.animateTo(gp);
}

If I comment the line

//mc.stopAnimation(true);

I no longer get the exception.

Can anyone help me to understand why this exception has occurred?

Please help me on this.

The app is likely to wait before the GPS Sensor is looking for the location.

mMyLocationOverlay.runOnFirstFix(new Runnable() { 
    public void run() {
                    mapView.getController().animateTo(myLocation);
        }});
