The accident occurred when Edwards' van was hit by a bale of hay that rolled out into the road that he was traveling.
The bale, estimated at 1, 323 lbs rolled down a hill, jumped a slope and landed on the top of Edwards vehicle crushing the vehicle and killing the driver. After the bale of hay hit the vehicle it swerved into oncoming traffic and hit another vehicle head on, with the driver of the second vehicle being uninjured.
Devon and Cornwall police are now searching for family members of the victim to inform them of the accident but have had no luck. Edwards left the band in 1975, became a Buddhist and changed his name legally to Deva Pramada. Since leaving the group he had been making his living teaching cello in Devon, England.
