What happened to Sirius Black?

Answer 1

Bellatrix Lestrange (his cousin) sent a curse towards him, which pushed him behind the veil of the dead in the Department of Mysteries in the Ministry of Magic.

The film changed it slightly and instead of just sending a curse at him Bellatrix hit him with the killing curse and he fell back into the veil.

Answer 2

Sirius Black was killed when his cousin (Bellatrix Lestrange) cast an unknown curse at him and he fell backwards into a veil from which he could not escape. In the movie he is just hit by the killing curse.
