Following Imari Niskanen’s goal, which was the difference between the sides, Fuchs was seen to be in conversation with the home side’s bench, along with referee Don Robertson and fourth official Mike Roncone.
United claim they now have evidence to back up the Cameroonian midfielder’s claims, and have submitted findings to the Scottish FA and SPFL.
Ferguson’s statement also criticised the actions of United head coach Thomas Courts, who produced a “show racism the red card” t-shirt in front of the County supporters immediately after the game.
Ross County confirmed they will be making no further comment on the situation at this stage.
