Following a complaint from a Leeds fan in the stadium’s away section, Lancashire Police is also “establishing the facts” surrounding the alleged incident.
Mejbri, 22, made a comeback in the 83rd minute when he confronted Gabriel Gudmundsson in front of the dugouts after making a powerful tackle on the Leeds defender.
The FA is reportedly undergoing a full investigation, but it has not yet begun a full investigation.
Lancashire Police said it was aware of an alleged incident involving a Burnley player during the Premier League match between Leeds United and Burnley on Saturday at Turf Moor.
The organization continued, “We are currently working with Burnley Football Club to establish the facts.”
