--- Comment #1 from [email protected] ---
I tried a new technique: Started selecting the text from the bottom of the
document and worked upwards. This worked, and I was able to delete the text
without a crash. 

This is a strong clue! It means that the Writer was unable to repaginate the
document when text was deleted from the top. (That was not needed when I
deleted text from bottom.)

This points to an old issue with LibreOffice (inherited from its OO days): The
LO algorithm cannot repaginate the text if the layout is complex. 

Typically, Writer crashes when the file has this combination of complexities:
* Tables that span over multiple pages
* Tables that have merged cells
* Nested tables (within other tables)
* Images anchored inside tables
* Hyperlinks to both bookmarks and headings
* Footnotes, some of which may spill over on next page. 

Note that in my document, the hyperlinks and footnotes are inserted in a table
and also embedded in free-flow text.
