(Answer is applicable to the USA only): A warrantless arrest is never served. A warrantless arrest is performed. Following the warrantless arrest, the arresting individual (typically) or authority is required (usually) to provide the courts with a warrantless arrest affidavit wherein the person making the arrest articulates the probable cause for the arrest, which then is submitted to a judge for review. The arrested person will already be in jail or otherwise in custody (and possibly even bonded out), before the signed warrantless arrest affidavit becomes available to the arrested person.

Can I be served a subpoena in order to be arrested for a warrant?

A subpoena is a legal document that orders an individual to appear in court or produce evidence, but it is not typically used for arrest purposes. If there is an outstanding warrant for your arrest, law enforcement can arrest you directly without the need for a subpoena. However, being served a subpoena might indicate that you are required to testify or provide information related to a case, which is separate from any arrest warrant. If you have concerns about a warrant, it's best to consult with a legal professional.
