The second shooting Is un known. O'Keefe said Burke was not In on the Brink's robbery In any way. O'Keefe also stressed "there was no inside connection. We had keys to every lock in tha joint. We had a complete layout, and we didn't need an inside man." O'Keefe was poker-faced aa ha . stepped from the office ot Dlst. Atty. Oarrett H. Byrne and walked Into the grand Jury room. He showed no sign of emotion as flash bulbs went off and movie cameras ground. O'Keefe was the fifth witness of the day. The others were Brink's employes who were In the Brink's office the night of the holdup, Jan uary, 17, 1950. - None of the previous witnesses presented by Byrne spent more than 20 minutes with the grand Jury of 19, Including three wom en. RELENTLESS WORK The FBI has been working on . the case relentlessly since the men went through six locked doors of the Brink's money-carrying firm on the second floor of a water front garage and surprised five guards.
