When a 17-year-old is arrested for being a runaway, law enforcement typically contacts her parents or guardians to inform them of the situation. She may be taken to a juvenile detention center or a designated facility until her guardians can pick her up. Depending on local laws, she might also be referred to social services for support or counseling. The focus is often on ensuring her safety and addressing any underlying issues that led to her running away.
