In addition to any other powers he may have, any law enforcement officer who arrests a juvenile for violating any of the provisions of sections 22-1 or 22-2 is also hereby empowered to demand of the parent, guardian or other person having the care, custody or supervision of such juvenile that such parent, guardian or other person come and take such juvenile into custody. Should there be a failure of the parent, guardian or other person to take custody of such juvenile, the officer may then be empowered to take such juvenile home. It shall be unlawful for any such parent, guardian or other person having the care, custody or supervision of said juvenile to fail or refuse to take such juvenile into custody after such demand is made upon him.
