Choosing a point in matplotlib embedded in wxPython

I'm trying to select and display data about a point in matplotlib embedded in wxPython.

I've written a minimal example which plots random data. The code is below.

import numpy as np
import wx


from matplotlib.figure import Figure
from matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg import FigureCanvasWxAgg as FigureCanvas

class PlotGUI(wx.Frame):
    """Class to display basic GUI elements."""
    def __init__(self, parent):
        wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent)

        panel = wx.Panel(self)
        self.panel = panel

        vert_sizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx.VERTICAL)
        self.vert_sizer = vert_sizer

        panel.figure = Figure()
        panel.canvas = FigureCanvas(panel, -1, panel.figure)
        self.panel.canvas = panel.canvas

        panel.axes = panel.figure.add_subplot(111)
        self.panel.axes = panel.axes

        vert_sizer.Add(panel.canvas, 1, wx.LEFT | wx.TOP | wx.EXPAND)
        panel.SetSizer(vert_sizer)
        panel.Fit()

        self.plot_data()

        self.panel.canvas.mpl_connect('pick_event', self.display_data)

    def display_data(self, event):
        wx.MessageBox('x :'+str(event.mouseevent.xdata) + 'y: ' + str(event.mouseevent.ydata), 'Info',wx.OK | wx.ICON_INFORMATION)

    def plot_data(self):
        x = np.arange(10)
        y = np.random.randn(10)
        self.panel.axes.plot(x,y, 'o', picker = 5)

def main():
    app = wx.App()
    GUI = PlotGUI(None)
    GUI.Show()
    app.MainLoop()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

The first time I click a point, the data is correctly displayed. However, the next time I click a point, I receive an error. I tried searching for this error, but I wasn't able to find any relevant threads. Thanks in advance for the help.
