Hooks and a friend were sitting outside the restaurant playing cards near the front door when Bonilla showed up and confronted Hooks. After a brief scuffle, she pointed a knife at Hooks face, he pushed her away where she fell to the ground, got back up and stabbed him, deputies said.
Bonilla, Hooks and the other person all work at Burger King, deputies said.
Deputies said the fight is related to an intimate relationship Bonilla had with Hooks and with the co-worker.
"It's senseless -- all these cases are, but this was really something because it didn't have to get to this point," said Andrew Gant with the Volusia County Sheriff's Office.
Bonilla left the scene and flashed her headlights to flag down a deputy.
Bonilla faces charges of second-degree murder. She is being held at the Volusia County Jail without bail.
