It is important to clarify that the specific historical context or location is not mentioned in the question, which makes it difficult to provide a completely accurate response. However, based on general historical knowledge, it is unlikely that a child would be arrested or labeled solely because they were mixed-race. Historical practices regarding mixed-race individuals varied greatly depending on the time period and specific country or region.

In some instances, children of mixed race may have faced discrimination or prejudice, but it is not accurate to say that they were automatically arrested or sent to orphanages simply because of their mixed heritage. Historical examples showcase a range of experiences where mixed-race individuals faced discrimination, social marginalization, or were subjected to prejudiced policies. However, each situation would have depended on the particular laws, attitudes, and social structures of the time and place being discussed.
